Giffard Park Primary School

Summer 2025 Giffard Park Primary School Results Foundation Stage

At the end of the Foundation Stage children are assessed against each of the 17 Early Learning Goals (ELG). Children are assessed as either emerging, expected or exceeding in each of the ELGs and are considered to have reached a ‘Good Level of Development’ if they have achieved at least the expected level in:

• the prime areas of learning - personal, social and emotional development; physical development; and communication and language and; 
• the specific areas of mathematics and literacy.

At Giffard Park Primary School in the summer of 2025 70% of children achieved a Good Level of Development. 
The National Average figure was 68%.

 

 

Key Stage 1 Results, Phonics and End of Key Stage 1 Assessments

Children in Year 1 take a phonics screening check which checks how well children are able to read the sounds that letters and groups of letters make.

In 2025 80% of children achieved the expected standards in the phonics screening test; the national figure for 2024 was 80%.

Any children that do not achieve the expected standard in Year 1 re-take this assessment in Year 2. By the end of Year 2 in 2025, 50% of children who needed to retake had achieved the expected standard.

From Summer 2024 Key Stage 1 Assessments became non-statutory, therefore there are no National figures to comapre to, The table below shows Giffard Park results from the end of Key Stage 1 assessments taken in 2025. 

Key Stage 2 Results

The Key Stage 2 tests taken by children in May 2025 were the fourth set of assessments taken since the COVID pandemic. In 2016 new assessment tests and an assessment framework were also introduced along with guidance for teachers. This assessment framework is what our Year 6 children were tested against in May 2025. 

Each child receives their test results as a scaled score and a teacher assessment based on their writing, which is judged according to the assessment framework. When interpreting the results you may wish to note the following:

• Children receive a scaled score in each of reading, grammar/punctuation/spelling and maths – the range of this score is 80 to 120 and 100 is the expected standard. The threshold set for children considered to have achieved a high score is 110.
