About Kings Furlong Junior School

Kings Furlong Junior School’s Key Stage 2 results sit slightly below the Hampshire local authority average for primary schools, with 57% of pupils reaching the expected standard in reading, writing and maths combined, compared to the LA average of 61%. That four-point gap places the school in the bottom half of its local authority ranking — 28th out of 40 schools in Basingstoke and Deane, and in the bottom 50% nationally. The picture is more mixed when you look at individual subjects: 75% of pupils met the expected standard in maths, and 70% in reading, but writing lagged at 60%. Only 3% of pupils reached the higher standard across all three subjects, and just 17% did so in maths. The school’s average scaled scores of 104 in maths and 105 in reading are broadly in line with national averages, suggesting that while most children are meeting basic expectations, fewer are exceeding them.
