Reporting

  • publishing reports of our findings so they can be used to improve the overall quality of education and training.

2020 & 2021 National Curriculum Assessments

In March 2020, the Secretary of State for Education announced that the 2019/20 national curriculum assessments would not take place due to the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic.  
The following assessments were cancelled:  

  • end of key stage 1 and key stage 2 assessments (including tests and teacher assessment)  
  • phonics screening check  
  • multiplication tables check  
  • science sampling tests  
  • all statutory trialling 

The department recognises this creates a gap in KS1 and KS2 attainment data for year 2 and year 6 pupils in 2020 &2021 and future progress measures that rely on that data will also be missing.

Pupil Premium 

The Pupil Premium is allocated to schools for children of statutory school age from low-income families who are known to be eligible for Free school meals (FSM) in both mainstream and non-mainstream settings : to children who have been looked after continuously for more than six months and to children whose parents are currently serving in the armed forces.

Pupil Premium funding includes pupils eligible for FSM at any point in the last six years (known as the Ever 6 FSM measure).

Schools are free to spend the Pupil Premium as they see fit in order to support identified children however we will be held accountable for how we use the funding to support those children from low-income families.

Physical Education and Sports Premium 

The government is providing additional funding of £150 million per annum from 2013 to improve provision of physical education (PE) and sport in primary schools. This funding - provided jointly by the Departments for Education, Health and Culture, Media and Sport - will be allocated to primary school headteachers.

This funding is ring-fenced and therefore can only be spent on provision of PE and sport in schools.
