Performance

Data on school performance is collated and sent to the Department for Education via the local authority. These figures are then published, with comparisons to local and national figures.

Performance figures below for 2023 onwards are based on external and internal assessment, and external moderation. They are published on the national performace tables on the DfE site here: https://www.compare-school-performance.service.gov.uk/school/110837/park-street-cofe-primary-school/primary

Performance figures below for 2022 are based on external and internal assessment, and external moderation, and were not published nationally due to COVID19

Performance figures below for 2021 are based on internal assessments and external moderation, and were not published nationally due to COVID19

Note: Where there is no figures given, they are either not yet available from the school, or were not published by the Department for Education.

Note: Due to the small size of each year group at Park Street, each pupil represents 7-8%. This means that noticable variations up and down year-on-year are to be expected.
