PLEASE NOTE, FOLLOWING THE PANDEMIC, THE GOVERNMENT RESTORED ALL EXTERNAL ASSESSMENTS DUE IN THE ACADEMIC YEAR 2021/22 TO ASSESS RECOVERY AND THE DATA IS HERE AS A GUIDE.

Our Results From Government Assessments In 2021/22 Academic Year

Please find below three documents in succession for each year group’s key assessments in Summer 2022, containing our results for those assessments that all schools with pupils aged 4-7 must undertake. Please note, each cohort has children with different needs and abilities and on average one child in each year group is equivalent to 1.1.% (our usual cohort in each year is 90 children).

Reception children must have an assessment across seventeen ‘Early Learning Goals’ being assessed at either ‘Entering’, ‘Expected’ or ‘Exceeding’ by the end of the academic year.

Attendance: Also we are pleased to highlight that our attendance rate is above national average at 95.4% of all possible attendances for the last full (very Covid absence affected) academic year September 2021 – July 2022, despite big outbreaks of chicken pox in the Winter and a smaller one again in the Summer which caused two (untypical for Thurnham) absence peaks.
