1406 Annual Goal Progress Report - 4 June 2014

Annual Goal Progress Report

Annual Goal for 2014: To improve the percentage of pupils working at and above the National Standards at years 4 and 5 in Written Language.

Rationale

The 2013 National Standards Report  told us:

• • 81% of year 4 pupils are either “below” or “well below” expectations.

  • 82% of year 5 pupils are either “below” or “well below” expectations.

  • More boys than girls are “below” or “well below” (74% compared to 55%) particularly in the “well below” category..

  • In 2013 years 4 and 5 fared worse than other year levels. This is the same trend as we found in 2012.
