School Performance Data

What is school performance data? 

School performance data is statistical information showing how well pupils in England have done in public examinations taken at key points in their educational journey. Data is published for children’s attainment in national curriculum tests, often known as SATs, which are sat at the end of primary school at age 10 or 11.

Changes to statutory assessments and reporting in 2021-2022

The government will not publish KS2 school level data for the 2021 to 2022 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.

In recognition of the challenges posed by the pandemic, the Department of Education (DfE) cancelled both KS1 and KS2 SATs tests for 2021. 

High achievement

Little Ealing pupils make very good academic progress and achieve very well compared to their peers locally in Ealing and nationally.

We focus on pupils' attainment and progress from different starting points.

Attainment

We aim for as many pupils as possible to meet age-related expectations based on the National Curriculum by the end of each year group. Many pupils will meet these expectations during the school year and will start to apply their learning in different ways to work at greater depth.

Progress

Every child is unique, each with their own abilities. We track progress from each pupil's starting point:

• Reception, from an initial assessment when pupils start school
• Year 1 and Year 2, from the end of Reception based on the 'good level of development' judgement
• Years 3-6, from the end of Year 2 (key-stage 1) based on National Curriculum levels or assessment against national standards.

Key groups of pupils

Every pupil is important and we track their academic progress individually. We also focus on 4 key groups of pupils:

• the most-able pupils, typically with the highest starting points
• disadvantaged pupils who receive additional government funding known as the Pupil Premium grant
• pupils with special educational needs
• those pupils who need to catch-up their peers.

Results

Schools must publish end of key-stage 2 results. 

We may also publish other key results for other age groups.
