    THE GATEWAY PRIMARY RECEIVES NATIONAL RECOGNITION FOR PERFORMANCE

    The Gateway Primary Academy are delighted that their excellent outcomes have been recognised by SSAT (The Schools, Students and Teachers Network) in this year’s Educational Outcomes Awards. The award recognises that The Gateway Primary Academy is among the highest performing primary schools in the country, based on 2023 performance data and information from Ofsted.

    The Gateway Primary Academy was recognised for being in the top 20% of schools nationally for pupil attainment in the 2023 KS2 tests.

    The SSAT Educational Outcomes database compares all state-funded schools in England. To be recognised with an Educational Outcomes Award is a significant achievement and a testament to the work of the whole school community.

    Sue Williamson, Chief Executive of SSAT said:

    “Congratulations to The Gateway Primary Academy on winning an SSAT Educational Outcomes award. This success is down to the superb learning and teaching, outstanding support and inspirational leadership of students, staff, parents and governors. You have made a huge difference to the lives of the young people in your school. Thank you.”

    PUPIL PERFORMANCE REPORT

     

    The following tables detail the schools’ standards of achievement in 2025 at Key Stage 1 and 2. In all key performance indicators standards are above the national average.

    Pupils in Year 6 (end of Key Stage 2) are assessed using national Statutory Assessment Tests in reading, maths, grammar, punctuation and spelling. In these tests pupil’s raw scores are converted into a scaled scored to decide if pupils have met or exceeded the expected standard for the end of the Key Stage. In writing pupil’s attainment is assessed by teachers against a national framework.

    A scaled scored of 100 is needed to have achieved the nationally expected standard. Pupils with a scaled score of 110 or above in the tests are considered to have exceeded the expected standard.

    Pupils in Year 2 (end of Key Stage 1) are assessed by teachers using the outcomes of national tests (SATs) and teacher assessment against a national framework in reading, maths and writing.

    For further information, please see the leaflets Information for parents KS1 and Information for parents KS2 from the Standards and Testing Agency.
