KS2 Results & Secondary Transition

End of Key Stage 2 Results 2019

Due to the Covid 19 pandemic, there are no results for the academic years 2019-2020 or 2020-2021.

The government will not publish Key Stage 2 school level data for the 2021-2022 academic year.  They have archived data from the 2018-2019 academic year because they recognise that the data from that year may no longer reflect current performance.

What is a Scaled Score?

A pupil’s scaled score is based on their raw score. The raw score is the total number of marks a pupil scores in a test, based on the number of questions they answered correctly.

We develop tests each year to the same specification, but because the questions must be different, the difficulty of tests may vary slightly each year. This means we need to convert the raw scores pupils get in the tests into a scaled score, to ensure we can make accurate comparisons of pupil performance over time. Every scaled score will represent the same level of attainment for a pupil each year, so a pupil who scores 103, for example, in 2016 will have demonstrated the same attainment as a pupil who scores 103 in 2017.

A scaled score of 100 will always represent the expected standard on the test. Pupils scoring 100 or more will have met the expected standard on the test.

In 2016, panels of teachers set the raw score required to meet the expected standard on each test.

2019 Key Stage 2 Expected+ : Children achieving a scaled score of 100 or more

There were 32 children (16 girls and 16 boys) in this cohort so each child represents 3.1%.
