A Note on Our School's Context

At Crosscanonby St John’s CE School, our primary focus is on the individual child. We are incredibly proud of all our pupils' achievements and the progress they make during their time with us.

This year's Year 6 cohort was unique. This cohort had a significantly higher-than-average proportion of pupils with Special Educational Needs and Disabilities (SEND) compared to national averages, with 55% of the class having an identified SEND.

The attainment and progress of pupils with SEND are a key priority for our school. We are committed to providing a fully inclusive education, and these results reflect the hard work and dedication of both our pupils and our staff to support every child.

It is important to remember that this data represents only a small snapshot of our pupils' full abilities and achievements. Their resilience, creativity, kindness, and personal growth are equally important to us.

The results presented below are based on the pupils who were able to sit the statutory national curriculum tests. As a school, we are committed to the wellbeing of all our pupils, and we understand that sometimes, unforeseen circumstances mean that a child is unable to attend school for their tests.

For this year's cohort, some children were absent during SATs week and therefore did not sit the tests.

It's important to understand how this impacts the data:

• Attainment Measures: The official school data includes all pupils on the school roll. Pupils who were absent for a test are generally counted as "not achieving the expected standard" in that subject. This can have a significant impact on the overall percentages, particularly in a small cohort.

We believe it is important to provide this context to give a more accurate and holistic view of our school's performance. The children in this cohort have worked incredibly hard throughout their time at Crosscanonby St John’s CE School, and we are immensely proud of their achievements, regardless of whether they were able to sit the tests.

Understanding the Data

• Expected Standard: A pupil meets the expected standard in a test (reading, maths, and grammar, punctuation, and spelling) if they achieve a scaled score of 100 or more. In writing, this is a teacher-assessed judgement.
• Higher Standard: This is for pupils achieving a scaled score of 110 or more in tests, or 'working at greater depth' in writing.
