About Little Reddings Primary School

Little Reddings Primary School sits below the Hertfordshire local authority average for Key Stage 2 outcomes, with 54% of pupils reaching the expected standard in reading, writing and maths combined, compared with the LA average of 64%. That ten-point gap places the school in the bottom half of primary schools in Hertsmere, where it ranks 19th out of 29. The picture is mixed when you look at individual subjects: 70% of pupils met the expected standard in reading and 65% in writing, but maths was weaker at 62%. Only 8% of pupils achieved the higher standard across all three subjects, and just 8% hit the higher bar in writing. Reading and maths average scores of 105 and 104 respectively are close to the national average of 104, so the school is not far off the pace in those areas. The challenge is clearly in getting more pupils across the line in maths and sustaining that progress into the higher bands.
