miga Posted February 17, 2015 Share Posted February 17, 2015 Hi All -State primary schools publish the number of kids achieving various levels at KS2, and this is easily found.Is there somewhere an equivalent source of information for private schools? I'm after very specific practical advice, rather than an abstract discussion on different types of education.Thanks Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/54551-private-schools-results-at-primary-level-practical-question/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mrs TP Posted February 17, 2015 Share Posted February 17, 2015 Surely this would be in each school's own brochure / website and doesn't the Times publish an annual guide to independent schools?

miga Posted February 17, 2015 Author Share Posted February 17, 2015 Are you speaking from experience Mrs TP? The ISI reports seem to be qualitative, which is fine, but I'm specifically looking for % >lvl 5/6 @ KS2 in the various categories (or equivalent), as published by state schools.

Mrs TP Posted February 17, 2015 Share Posted February 17, 2015 No just guessing and vaguely remembering Times list ...?

miga Posted February 17, 2015 Author Share Posted February 17, 2015 Ah, OK. Yes - that seems to be a good one for high school results (IB, A Levels, GCSE), but the primary school results are quite vague (or I'm missing something really obvious).Best I can find are lists based on which high schools the kids progress to.

Townleygreen Posted February 17, 2015 Share Posted February 17, 2015 I don't think many private schools do any KS tests!

srisky Posted February 18, 2015 Share Posted February 18, 2015 Perhaps if you contact the schools directly? I remember JAPS handed out information at their open day about the percentage of girls achieving national levels and above.

lillyanginger Posted February 19, 2015 Share Posted February 19, 2015 Alleyns Junior School provide the info on their website. I would email the schools and ask for that information, surely they have got it.

Smiler Posted February 19, 2015 Share Posted February 19, 2015 Unless an all-through school, expect most emphasise and have lists on request of the number of entries to popular, selective private and state secondaries.

Digbina Posted February 20, 2015 Share Posted February 20, 2015 If they don't follow the national curriculum then presumably they aren't doing SATS so wouldn't have the info to publish?

miga Posted February 22, 2015 Author Share Posted February 22, 2015 Thanks all - some good tips. I guess the problem is that the comparison isn't usually like for like (esp. for prep schools, which have a different mandate). The Alleyns KS2 results are excellent.

vesti Posted February 22, 2015 Share Posted February 22, 2015 Well of course they're excellent when you are selective in the first place and then 'ask' those children to leave who aren't up to scratch.
