Outcomes at Meadlands are excellent. Pupils achieve significantly above national averages at the end of all Key Stages across all subjects. Meadlands' pupils have been commended for academic excellence: We are in the top 10% of schools nationally for attainment in phonics, reading and mathematics.
Over the past five years, Meadlands' results have been on an upward trajectory and in 2019 the school achieved its highest ever attainment and progress scores in some areas of the curriculum. We dream bigger each year, read on...
Attainment:
Due to school closure, no Statutory assessments took place in 2019-2020. However, we still dreamed big and the teacher assessments for our year 6 cohort were the highest in Meadlands history!

Progress:
Progress means knowing more and remembering more. And at Meadlands we measure this by setting personalised targets for every pupil and tracking their progress towards these targets throughout the year. At the end of the summer term teachers and senior leaders are able to measure the percentage of good progress in each class by assessing the number of pupils who have achieved their targets.
Teachers work with senior leaders every half term to monitor the progress all pupils are making, anyone who is falling behind is quickly identified and support is put in place. This support might be extra help in class, an intervention targeting specific learning or a meeting with the child's parents to discuss strategies that can be supported at home as well as in school.
At the end of Key Stage 2, the government measures the progress the children have made during their time at school by comparing the pupils' end of Key Stage 1 SATs scores to their end of Key Stage 2.
At Meadlands we have high expectations and we are proud that our pupils' progress outcomes exceed national. The national measure for progress is '0'. Anything below this is below national standards and above is above! Scores 4 or more points above are often deemed very high performing schools.
