We are incredibly proud to celebrate another year of exceptional outcomes at Goldsmith Primary Academy. Indeed, the best the school has ever had in its history. Our pupils continue to achieve results that are above national averages and reflect the ambition, dedication and resilience of our whole school community.

This year has seen significant improvements across the school. Reception children achieved a fantastic 77% Good Level of Development, Year 1 phonics outcomes improved to 86%, with 91% of pupils achieving the expected standard by the end of Year 2. Our Year 4 pupils continued to excel in the Multiplication Tables Check, maintaining an outstanding average score of 22.0 out of 25. At Key Stage 2, 79% of pupils achieved the expected standard in Reading, Writing and Mathematics combined, with 9% achieving the Greater Depth Standard – both above national averages. Attendance also continued to improve to 95.3%, whilst Persistent Absence reduced significantly to 12.0%, reflecting our relentless commitment to ensuring every child is in school, every day, ready to learn.

These achievements are a testament to the hard work of our pupils, the unwavering support of our families and the dedication of our incredible staff, who continue to ensure that every child has the opportunity to Dream. Rise. ASPIRE.
