The Department of Education has revealed the 2022/23 SAT results in maths, reading and writing in Calderdale schools.
SATs are Standard Assessment Tests administered by primary schools at the end of Year 6 to measure children's educational achievements.
This is the first time the data was revealed in three years – as in the academic year 2021/22 and 2020/21 SATs were cancelled due to Covid-19.
Below is the list of those Calderdale 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.
