The Department for Education has revealed the 2024/25 SAT results in maths, reading and writing in Wakefield schools.
SATs are Standard Assessment Tests administered by primary schools at the end of Year 6 to measure children's educational achievements.
Below is the list of those Wakefield primary schools which have the highest percentage of pupils meeting the Department of Education ‘expected standard’.
Pupils are meeting the expected standard if they achieve a scaled score of 100 or more in their reading and maths tests, and their teacher assesses them as 'working at the expected standard' or better in writing.
Overall in Wakefield 63 per cent of pupils met the expected standard.
