Phonics

St John Fisher CVA demonstrates exceptionally strong performance in phonics. The 2024 Year 1 phonics screening check results show that 93% of pupils achieved the expected standard. This places the school within the top 10% nationally (90th percentile). This excellent outcome reflects a consistently high standard of phonics teaching and learning within the school.

We are proud of our pupils’ achievements and thank our staff, parents and carers for their continued support.

2022 – 23 Results

National data was released in Autumn 2023 which compares schools across the country. We are absolutely delighted that SJF is in the top 10% of all schools for progress in reading, writing and maths. This means that, as children journey through the school, they make more progress in reading, writing and maths than 90% of schools across the country.

This is a huge testament to the hard work of our pupils, the dedication and commitment of
our teaching and staff team and the support of our highly-valued parents and carers.

Our phonics results have improved every year for the last 4 years which means the majority of the children go to Year 2 and Key Stage 2 reading well. Well done to the pupils and all the staff in achieving this!
