Understanding Assessment Information

Schools use a range of assessment terms when reporting pupil outcomes. The guide below explains what these terms mean in a simple and parent-friendly way.

Assessment Terms Explained

Early Years and Phonics

  • EYFS – Early Years Foundation Stage, the curriculum followed by children in Reception.
  • GLD – Good Level of Development. The percentage of Reception children who achieved the expected level in key areas of learning, including literacy and mathematics.
  • Phonics Screening Check – A national assessment taken in Year 1 to assess children's ability to read and decode words using phonics.

Attainment Measures

  • EXS – Expected Standard. A pupil has achieved the level expected for their age group.
  • EXS+ – Expected Standard and Above. A pupil has met or exceeded the expected standard.
  • GDS – Greater Depth Standard. A pupil is working beyond the expected standard for their age.
  • RWM – Reading, Writing and Mathematics combined. The percentage of pupils who achieved the expected standard in all three subjects.

Key Stage Assessments

  • SPAG / GPS – Spelling, Punctuation and Grammar. This is assessed through the national Grammar, Punctuation and Spelling test in Key Stage 2.
  • MTC – Multiplication Tables Check. A national assessment taken in Year 4 to check knowledge of times tables up to 12 × 12.
  • Scaled Score – Key Stage 2 test results are converted into scaled scores. A score of 100 represents the expected standard, with 120 being the highest possible score.

Understanding the Data

  • National Average (NA) – The average result achieved by pupils across England, allowing schools to compare outcomes nationally.
  • Internal Data – Teacher assessment information used by the school to monitor pupil progress. This may not form part of national assessment outcomes.

Please note: Percentages are based on the number of pupils in the relevant year group. In smaller cohorts, the performance of one or two pupils can have a noticeable impact on the overall percentage.

Performance Comparison

Many parents are keen to see how we are performing in relation to other schools. The Department for Education publishes national performance tables, which allow you to compare schools across England.
