Ofsted

The school was inspected, under the new framework, in November 2024. We are delighted to announce that Stoke Park Junior School was judged to have 'taken effective action in order to maintain the standards identified at the last inspection'. The school was previously inspected in May 2019 and was judged to be good. 

The school was recognised for its 'high ambitions and achievements' where pupils 'behave well' and 'achieve well'. The school is a 'happy place' where 'kindness and care permeates'.

It was recognised that 'pupils identified as SEN achieve well' in reading, writing and maths. With those pupils who are 'SEND and disadvantaged use reading and writing skills to well to successfully access the wider curriculum'.

Assessment

In May 2013, the Secretary of State announced: ‘as part of our reforms to the national curriculum, the current system of ‘levels’ used to report children’s attainment and progress will be removed. It will not be replaced.’

‘Reforming assessment and accountability for primary schools’ stated ‘schools should have the freedom to decide how to teach their curriculum and how to track the progress that pupils make’ (DfE, 2014: p4).

These announcements made it clear that central government was no longer going to dictate how schools should record and report progress between statutory tests. As such we at Stoke Park Junior School, along with other Hampshire schools have developed their own methods of assessing pupil progress. 

Academic Achievements

In May all Y6 pupils complete end of Key Stage 2 tests. The results of these test are used to measure the individual progress a pupil has made in their time at primary school before moving on to their secondary school. These results are also used by Ofsted & the Local Authority to measure the success of the school against other schools nationally.
