Attainment: expected standard

77% of our pupils achieved the expected standard in Reading, Writing and Maths, combined. This is securely above the national figure of 62%.

The proportions reaching national expectations for each subject, and for Grammar, Punctuation and Spelling, are:

• Reading: 90% meeting expected standards (national: 75%)
• Writing: 77% meeting expected standards (national: 72%)
• Grammar, Punctuation and Spelling: 83% meeting expected standards (national: 73%)
• Maths: 87% meeting expected standards (national: 74%)

Another measure used to analyse the assessment data is average scaled scores. ‘Scaled scores’ are the scores given to each pupil based on the test score, where 100 is the expected national standard (80 is the lowest possible, 120 is the highest).

• Reading: 109 is the average scaled score (national: 106)
• Grammar, Punctuation and Spelling: 109 is the average scaled score (national: 105)
• Maths: 107 is the average scaled score (national: 105)

Attainment: greater depth (higher level)

7% of our pupils achieved the greater depth standard in Reading, Writing and Maths, combined. The national figure was 8%.

Proportions reaching greater depth standard levels (scaled scores of over 110) in each subject are:

• Reading: 53% reaching greater depth (national: 33%)
• Writing: 7% reaching greater depth (national: 13%)
• Grammar, Punctuation and Spelling: 53% reaching greater depth (national: 30%)
• Maths: 27% reaching greater depth (national: 26%)

Attainment: expected standard

83% of our pupils achieved the expected standard in Reading, Writing and Maths, combined. This is significantly above the national figure of 61%.

The proportions reaching national expectations for each subject, and for Grammar, Punctuation and Spelling, are also all significantly above national figures:

• Reading: 84% met expected standards (national: 74%)
• Writing: 93% met expected standards (national: 72%)
• Grammar, Punctuation and Spelling: 90% met expected standards (national: 72%)
• Maths: 100% met expected standards (national: 73%)

Another measure used to analyse the assessment data is average scaled scores. ‘Scaled scores’ are the scores given to each pupil based on the test score, where 100 is the expected national standard (80 is the lowest possible, 120 is the highest).

• Reading: 108 is the average scaled score (national: 105)
• Grammar, Punctuation and Spelling: 111 is the average scaled score (national: 105)
• Maths: 107 is the average scaled score (national: 104)

Attainment: greater depth (higher level)

Proportions reaching greater depth standard levels (scaled scores of over 110) are also consistently higher than national. 13% of our pupils achieved greater depth in Reading, Writing and Maths, combined. The national figure is 8%.

• Reading: 36% reaching greater depth (national: 29%)
• Writing: 27% reaching greater depth (national: 13%)
• Grammar, Punctuation and Spelling: 39% reaching greater depth (national: 30%)
• Maths: 26% reaching greater depth (national: 24%)

Attainment: expected standard

In 2023, 87% of our pupils achieved the expected standard in Reading, Writing and Maths, combined. This is significantly above the national figure of 59%.

The proportions reaching national expectations for each subject, and for Grammar, Punctuation and Spelling, are also all significantly above national figures:

• Reading: 94% meeting expected standards (national: 73%)
• Writing: 100% meeting expected standards (national: 71%)
• Grammar, Punctuation and Spelling: 100% meeting expected standards (national: 72%)
• Maths: 94% meeting expected standards (national: 73%)

Another measure used to analyse the assessment data is average scaled scores. ‘Scaled scores’ are the scores given to each pupil based on the test score, where 100 is the expected national standard (80 is the lowest possible, 120 is the highest).

• Reading: 110 is the average scaled score (national: 105)
• Grammar, Punctuation and Spelling: 112 is the average scaled score (national: 106)
• Maths: 109 is the average scaled score (national: 105)

Attainment: greater depth (higher level)

Proportions reaching greater depth standard levels (scaled scores of over 110) are also consistently higher than national. 23% of our pupils achieved greater depth in Reading, Writing and Maths, combined. This is almost three times the national figure of 8%.

• Reading: 55% reaching greater depth (national: 29%)
• Writing: 36% reaching greater depth (national: 13%)
• Grammar, Punctuation and Spelling: 65% reaching greater depth (national: 30%)
• Maths: 48% reaching greater depth (national: 24%)

Progress

The Department for Education measures progress from Key Stage 1 (KS1) to Key Stage 2 (KS2). Expected progress is zero, with anything above that being better than expected and negative numbers showing less than expected progress.

• +3.3 average progress in Reading
• +4.4 average progress in Writing
• +3.9 average progress in Maths

The government has not published Key Stage 2 data for the 2021-22 academic year. They have archived data from the 2018 to 2019 academic year because they recognise that the data from that year may no longer reflect current performance due to the disruptions in education caused by Covid.

Attainment: expected standard

81% of our pupils achieved the expected standard in Reading, Writing and Maths, combined – higher than the national figure of 59%.

The proportions reaching national expectations for each subject, and for Grammar, Punctuation and Spelling, are all above the national figures:

• Reading: 87% meeting expected standards (national: 75%)
• Writing: 87% meeting expected standards (national: 69%)
• Grammar, Punctuation and Spelling: 90% meeting expected standards (national: 72%)
• Maths: 84% meeting expected standards (national: 71%)

Another measure used to analyse the assessment data is average scaled scores. ‘Scaled scores’ are the scores given to each pupil based on the test score, where 100 is the expected national standard (80 is the lowest possible, 120 is the highest). Again, Moortown Primary pupils faired better for each subject than the national average:

• Reading: 108 is the average scaled score (national: 105)
• Grammar, Punctuation and Spelling: 110 is the average scaled score (national: 105)
• Maths: 106 is the average scaled score (national: 104)

Attainment: higher level

We continue to offer challenge to all children, including higher attaining pupils. Proportions reaching higher levels continue to be consistently higher than national figures. When we look at Reading, Writing and Maths combined, proportions are also significantly higher: 19%  (national: 7%).

• Reading: 42% meeting the higher level (national: 28%)
• Writing: 23% meeting the higher level (national: 13%)
• Grammar, Punctuation and Spelling: 45% meeting the higher level (national: 28%)
• Maths: 26% meeting the higher level (national: 22%)

Progress

The Department for Education measures progress from Key Stage 1 (KS1) to Key Stage 2 (KS2). Expected progress is zero, with anything above that being better than expected and negative numbers showing less than expected progress. Progress for the 2022 cohort is likely to be affected by Covid but appears at least in line with national.
