A request was made for information on educational outcomes from
other amalgamations, this will follow.
Educational outcomes for pupils
in recently amalgamated infant
and junior schools
KS2 outcomes
• Standards have risen in 4 out of the 5 schools at both L4 and L5 in
all subjects.
• On average, the percentage of pupils achieving L4 has increased by
15% and 14% at L5.
• Value added scores (progress from KS1 to KS2) have improved
dramatically. All of the junior schools were in the lowest 20% band
nationally at the time of closure.
• By 2014 this trend has been reversed with schools now in the top
quarter of schools nationally in most subjects.
• The longer the school has been a primary school the greater the
improvements.
KS1 outcomes
• Standards have also risen at KS1 in 4 out of
the 5 schools in all subjects
• On average, the percentage of pupils
achieving L2B+ has increased by 11% and
7% at L3.
Conclusion
• All of the Junior and Infant schools that have merged
since 2010 have either improved attainment at both
KS1 and KS2 or maintained standards that were
already above national averages.
• (Two schools amalgamated in 2014 and they will
have their first data sets for the primary school
Summer 15.)
• All the newly formed primary schools, that have been
inspected, have been judged good by OFSTED under
the new framework.
