The borough’s best primary schools have been revealed after the government published national SAT results today.
All Hallows Church in Gedling had the best Key Stage 2 results in the borough with 90% of pupils attending meeting the expected standard
Hot on the heels of All Hallows was Carlton Central Junior School with 83% and Willow Farm Primary School in Gedling which also scored 83%
National figures show the number of primary school pupils reaching the expected standard in reading, writing and maths has risen.
But almost 140,000 children across England are being taught at primaries which are falling below the government’s required standards.
Nick Gibb, School standards minister, said: “Teachers and pupils have responded well to the new more rigorous curriculum introduced by this government and these pupils were the first to benefit from the new approach to phonics.
He added: “There are now 1.9m more children in good or outstanding schools than in 2010, with nine out of 10 primary schools given this rating at their last inspection.”
