Continuing to buck the national trend with 2023 excellent results

Yet again we are delighted with the achievements of our pupils this year that continues to show our pupils' and teachers' enthusiasm for excellence, both in the classroom and previously online during COVID. 

Combined RWM: School 70% National 60%, Reading : School 82% National 73%,  Maths: School 85% National 73%.

Proud of our pupils and shows the capabilities and effectiveness of our experienced teaching team. 

We know that results do not on their own define our children's abilities in all they achieve at St Margaret's.  Other abilities celebrated are often shown in sport, music (including exam grades), the arts and many other areas, however we also recognise that it is our responsibility to enable as many children as possible to access the secondary curriculum by being able to be competent in reading, writing and mathematics.

Our results from externally marked and moderated examiners show that, even during the missed learning (which we minimised by remote learning) of COVID and the noted starting point of many children in the early years, our children exceeded the number of children nationally that achieved the expected standard in reading, writing mathematics.
