OTHER INFORMATION IN THE TABLES |
| |
| Number of pupils eligible for Key Stage 2 assessment in the 2001/2002 school year |
| All pupils, including those with special needs are eligible for assessment under the National Curriculum when they reach the end of Key Stage 2. Most will be aged 11 by the end of the school year, but some will be older or younger. This number includes all eligible pupils on the school roll at the time of the tests in May 2002, regardless of whether or not they sat the test (for example, because a pupil was absent or disapplied). |
| |
| Number and percentage of eligible pupils with SEN |
| Number of pupils eligible for the Key Stage 2 assessments in the 2001/2002 school year with special educational needs (SEN). Some of these pupils may not have taken the tests, because they were working at a level below that assessed by the tests (Level 3), or because they were disapplied. This will affect the schools' overall results. |
| |
| Level 4 or above (L4+); |
| The percentage of pupils, eligible for the Key Stage 2 tests, achieving Level 4 or above in the test. Level 4 is the level expected of most 11 year olds. This percentage is based on all eligible pupils, including those who were absent or disapplied at the time of the test and, therefore, did not achieve a result. |
| |
| Absent or Disapplied (A/D): |
| The percentage of pupils, eligible for the Key Stage 2 tests in 2002, who failed to achieve a level due to absence or who were exempted from assessment under section 364 or 365 of the Education Act 1996, who, therefore, did not achieve a result. |
| |
| Pupils (all ages) |
| Total number of pupils of all ages, including pupils in nursery classes, on the school roll on 17 January 2002. |
| |
| Pupils aged 11 |
| The number of pupils on the school roll on 17 January 2002 who reached the age of 11 during the school year. This number should normally be the same, or nearly the same, as the number of eligible pupils. If there is a big difference you may want to ask the school's head teacher for further information. |
| |
| Number and percentage of pupils with SEN with statements |
| Pupils of all ages on the school roll on 17 January 2002 with statements of special educational needs (SEN). These statements describe any learning difficulties that pupils have, and specify the extra help or equipment, that they need. Around 3% of school pupils nationally have statements. Some pupils with special educational needs are academically able. But schools face challenges in achieving Level 4 at Key Stage 2 for many pupils with SEN. The information on the numbers of pupils with SEN in each school helps you take this into account when looking at the school's results. |
| |
| Number and percentage of pupils with SEN without statements |
| Pupils of all ages on roll on 17 January 2002 with special educational needs (SEN), but without statements. These are pupils registered as having special educational needs without a statement but whose needs are met by the school. Some pupils with special educational needs are academically able. But schools face challenges in achieving Level 4 at Key Stage 2 for many pupils with SEN. The information on the numbers of pupils with SEN in each school helps you take this into account when looking at the school's results. |
