Using the latest data available on the Department for Education website (2024/25 academic year) we have identified the primary schools in North Somerset with the most pupils who surpassed the expected SATs standard.
SAT exams measure students’ progress and the schools’ performance and take place twice during primary school -once at the start and once at the end.
They help schools identify gaps in students’ knowledge and whether they need additional help. Secondary schools also use these results to ensure students are placed in the correct sets.
In average, 7% of pupils in North Somerset achieved at a higher standard in reading, writing and maths last academic year and in England, the average was 8%.
Here are the 23 schools with the highest rate of students surpassing the expected SATs standard:
