GRAFTON PRIMARY RESULTS 2017/18
Grafton Primary Headline Assessment outcomes 2017 – 2018
Key Stage Two (KS2)
The KS2 tests are designed to test pupils’ knowledge and understanding of the KS2 programmes of study. Children in Year 6 undertake these tests and each test is administered on a specified national date. The tests are marked externally and the results are reported to schools. Writing results are based on Teacher Assessment (TA), which is based on a variety of work that the children have produced throughout the academic year. The KS2 Tests consist of one English Reading paper, two English grammar, punctuation and spelling (gps) papers and three Mathematics papers (one on arithmetic, two on reasoning). Children are reported as working below, at or above (greater depth) the expected standard for the end of Year 6. We calculate the % of children who achieved the expected standard or above in all areas (including gps). Children’s results are reported using a ‘Scaled score’- this reflects their ‘raw’ score achieved on a test. For KS2 tests, a scaled score of 100 represents achieving the ‘expected standard’. Below you will also see the school’s ‘average progress score’ – this reflects the cohort’s average progress made when comparing to other children with similar starting points nationally:
-
A score of 0 means pupils in this school on average do about as well at KS2 as those with similar prior attainment nationally.
-
A positive score means pupils in this school on average do better at KS2 as those with similar prior attainment nationally.
-
A negative score means pupils in this school on average do worse at KS2 as those with similar prior attainment nationally.
A negative score does not mean that pupils did not make any progress, rather it means they made less progress than other pupils nationally with similar starting points. (Primary Progress Measure, DFE 2016)
For example, a score of - 4 would mean that on average, pupils achieved 4 scaled points less than other pupils nationally with similar starting points.

-
Progress measure in Reading and Mathematics puts School in top 25% of all schools nationally.
-
Our Writing judgements were validated through Local Authority Moderation.
Key Stage One (KS1)
The KS1 tests are designed to test pupils’ knowledge and understanding of the KS1 programmes of study. Teachers must administer the English Reading and Mathematics tests to help make a secure judgement for their final Teacher Assessment (TA) at the end of KS1. The KS1 Tests consist of two English Reading papers and two Mathematics papers (one on arithmetic, one on reasoning). These tests are administered during the Summer Term in Year 2. Children are reported as working below, at or above (greater depth) the expected standard for the end of Year 2. We calculate the % of children who achieved the expected standard or above in all areas.

- The focus on raising the % of children working at Greater Depth in writing had a positive impact and is reflected in our outcomes.
Phonics Screening
This is a test which is taken by children in Year 1. The test is made up of 40 words (20 real words/20 Pseudo words). It is a short assessment which is administered every June to ensure that children have learned phonic decoding to an appropriate level (this is the ability to use letter-sound knowledge to correctly pronounce written words). The children had to achieve a score of 32 to pass the Phonics Screening. For those that do not achieve this mark, they will re-take the Phonics Screening in Year 2, with the expectation of passing.

- Improvement on 2-year decline, now inline with National attainment.
-
This year smaller whole class teaching groups were introduced at the beginning of Spring term.
-
Implementation of new phonic intervention had a positive impact and children made rapid progress.
-
Drop in % of children entering Year 3 having achieved Phonic Screening Pass Mark. New Phonic intervention has been implemented into Year 2 this year.
EYFS
Children are defined as having reached a Good Level of Development (GLD) at the end of the EYFS (Reception year) if they have achieved the expected standard - Early Learning Goals (ELGs) in Communication and Language, Personal, Social and Emotional Development, Physical Development, Literacy and Mathematics(12 ELGS in total). For each ELG, a practitioner must make their judgement based on a variety of sources of evidence.

-
2018 EYFS results show an improvement in attainment of the GLD, but we are 3% below the National picture.
-
13 % of the cohort were children with complex needs, 6% whom required 1:1 support.
-
Literacy continues to be an area for development. New Reading interventions have already been put into place to diminish the difference.
