Attainment at Deanesfield Primary School
This is a summary of the achievements of our superb pupils at Deanesfield who continue to make us feel very proud of them. We have a talented team of teachers, support staff and school leaders who are dedicated to ensuring a rounded and creative education for our pupils as well as ensuring their academic success across the school, whatever their starting points. This would not be possible without the fantastic support of so many of our parents and carers.
Key Changes to Attainment and Progress Measures
Pupils at the end of Key Stage 1 and 2, are not assessed using national curriculum levels. Instead there is now a new national standard called the Expected Standard, as well as a standard to identify those working at beyond expectations, now called Greater Depth. Our attainment summaries below will show the percentages of pupils who met these new standards.
Key Stage 1 Attainment Summary
Our pupils in Key Stage 1 have achieved high standards across the curriculum. They have consistently achieved above the national average in Reading, Writing and Mathematics over the last three years. Indeed a significant percentage of our pupils achieved the Greater Depth standard in all of the core areas, which is well above the national average. These achievements build on the good progress pupils make in our Foundation Stage from their on-entry starting points.

Year 1 Phonics
The phonics screening check was introduced in 2012 to measure how well pupils can decode words using their phonetic knowledge. Since the check was introduced, our pupils in Year 1 have continued to strengthen their performance in phonics and reading. Our pupils have achieved well above the national average since the check was first introduced.

Key Stage 2 Attainment Summary
We are proud of our pupils in Key Stage 2 who consistently achieve standards in line with and mainly above the national average at the Expected Standard and Greater Depth standards introduced in 2016, in Reading, Writing and Mathematics. These achievements build on the good progress pupils make in Key Stage 1 and our Foundation Stage from their on-entry starting points. We pride ourselves on pupils consistently making progress from Key Stage 1 to Key Stage 2. This is testimony to the hard work and dedication of pupils, staff and parents to enable accelerated progress to be made across Key Stage 2.
