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.

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.
