Whole-school progress

A quick overview of the progress of all the children in the school is a helpful starting point and places the analysis into context.

Over the course of the year, Crossmouth School's average total Foundation Stage point score rose from 48 to 92. This shows an overall increase of 44 points, and its end of year average point score is above the national average.

This data shows a clear difference in progress between the autumn, spring and summer terms. From this diagram, the school can clearly demonstrate that it is making progress. The school will need to revisit this judgement in the future in the light of local and national benchmark data.
