Lomeshaye Life It will soon be the end of the school year and there is still lots to do and even more to look forward to before we finish for our lovely Summer break. The last two weeks have been very busy, read on to find out what has been going on… SATS Results—Last week our long awaited SATs results arrived in school. All pupils in Year 6 worked extremely hard this year to prepare for the end of Key Stage assessments and the skilled staff in Year 6 supported them all year long to be able to do their best during SATs week in May. This year we have seen improvements in Grammar, Maths and Writing as shown in the table below, putting Lomeshaye above the National Average in these three areas, which is a fantastic achievement. Thank you to the parents of Year 6 pupils who have supported their children during this very important year in their education. Subject Reading
