Issue - meetings

The Board received a presentation on the validated school performance data which was published on 24 October 2024. 

Performance outcomes for schools across Halton at the end of Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS) and Key Stages 2 and 5 were shared with the Board.  It was reported that the outcomes for Key Stage 4 had been delayed by the Department for Education (DfE) and were expected in December 2024.

The Board noted the following highlights:

·       Good Level of Development – this was slightly down on last year to 61.2;

·       Phonics – was consistently the same; and

·       KS 2 – this had increased slightly to 59.6 (reading, writing and maths combined).

Members were advised that data relating to individual schools in their Wards could be found using the link in paragraph 3.4 of the report.

RESOLVED:  That the outcomes presented be noted.
