A Fantastic Start in Early Years

Our youngest children continue to thrive.

In Nursery, around 90% of children achieved expected standards in reading, writing and mathematics, with virtually all children making expected progress throughout the year. This reflects the consistent and high-quality provision across our Nursery classes.

Reception children also achieved excellent outcomes, with a 93% Good Level of Development (GLD). Attainment in reading (97%), writing (94%) and mathematics (95%) was particularly strong, demonstrating that children leave the Early Years exceptionally well prepared for Key Stage 1.

Exceptional Phonics Success

Learning to read is one of the most important skills children develop, and this remains a real strength at Fielding.

This year:

• 99% of Year 1 pupils met the expected standard in the Phonics Screening Check

These outcomes reflect the strength of our early reading provision and ensure that the vast majority of children are able to access the wider curriculum confidently.

Strong Outcomes Across Key Stage 1

Pupils in Years 1 and 2 achieved very high standards across the curriculum.

In Year 2:

• 95% achieved expected standards in reading
• 97% achieved expected standards in mathematics
• 91% achieved expected standards in writing

These outcomes provide a strong foundation for future success as pupils move into Key Stage 2.

Excellence Throughout Key Stage 2

Across Years 3 to 6, reading and mathematics were particular strengths, with consistently high attainment and evidence of strong progress.

Highlights include:

• 95% of Year 3 pupils achieving expected standards in mathematics
• 93% of Year 4 pupils achieving expected standards in reading
• 97% of Year 5 pupils achieving expected standards in mathematics
• 91% of Year 6 pupils achieving expected standards in reading and writing 

Year 5 stood out as an especially strong cohort, particularly in reading and mathematics, with excellent outcomes for many pupils, including those with additional needs.

Outstanding Multiplication Fluency

Our Year 4 pupils performed very strongly in the Multiplication Tables Check (MTC).

• The school's average score was 23.1, significantly above the most recent national average of 21.

These results reflect pupils' strong fluency with number facts and provide an excellent foundation for future mathematical learning. 

Exceptional Key Stage 2 Results

Our Year 6 pupils achieved outcomes that were significantly above national averages.

Excluding ARP pupils:

• 84% achieved the expected standard in Reading, Writing and Mathematics combined
• 91% achieved the expected standard in Reading
• 91% achieved the expected standard in Writing
• 90% achieved the expected standard in Mathematics
• 28% achieved the higher standard in Reading, Writing and Mathematics combined

These results build on Fielding's strong track record and reflect the hard work, resilience and commitment shown by pupils throughout their primary education.

A School Where All Pupils Can Succeed

One of the most encouraging aspects of this year's outcomes is the strong progress made by pupils with SEND. Our analysis identifies SEND progress as one of the school's strongest success stories, particularly in reading and mathematics, with many pupils improving their attainment between assessment points.

Looking Ahead

These outcomes reflect the dedication of our pupils, staff and families. Reading continues to be a major strength, mathematics outcomes remain exceptionally strong, phonics results are exceptional and children are making excellent progress from the very start of their learning journey.

We are incredibly proud of what our pupils have achieved this year and look forward to building on these successes in the years ahead.
