Attainment

Children undertake tests and tasks at various times during their primary education. These results are used to inform teachers of the strengths and areas for development for your child as they move into the next Key Stage. Children are also assessed by teachers at the end of the Early Years and Foundation Stage for their development in Reception and also take part in a phonics check in year 1 to see how well they can use their phonic skills. 

The tests and assessments are only small part of what a child can achieve and do not measure everything, for example their creativity or ability to think critically. We want children to do well in the tests but will never focus the learning at the Academy on simply passing tests.
