Blackfield
School Performance
At Blackfield Primary and Nursery School, we are proud of the achievements of our pupils. Academic outcomes are one measure of school success and provide valuable information about how well children are learning and progressing throughout their time with us.
Our results reflect the hard work of our pupils, staff and families, and demonstrate our commitment to providing a high-quality education for every child. Alongside national assessment data, we also place great importance on children's personal development, wellbeing, attendance, enrichment opportunities and readiness for the next stage of their education.
The information below provides an overview of our outcomes in national assessments, alongside national comparisons where available.
