Analysis at the end of the Foundation Stage, KS1 and KS2 shows that over time the 3 year attainment averages against National Expectations and GDS / HS continues to be outstanding and in many areas is significantly above National.
‘I want to congratulate you on your school’s outstanding achievement in the 2023 Phonics Screening Check. Your school is in the top 3% of all Primary Schools in the country.’ Damien Hinds Minister for Schools, 8th January 2024.
Attainment at the end of the Foundation Stage: 89.7% of the children achieving a GLD which is 21.4% above 2025 national (68.3%).


“The school’s phonics curriculum supports pupils’ love of reading well. The curriculum has been carefully designed and is expertly taught by teachers who have a deep knowledge of how pupils learn to read. Staff use assessment skilfully. If pupils begin to fall behind, staff spot this quickly and make sure these pupils get the help they need. Because of this, pupils, including those in the early years, quickly learn to read with confidence and fluency.” Ofsted 2024
