Have had a quick look but can't find what I want to find online. What percentage of y1's passed the check this year?

No reason other than curiosity!

Were schools supposed to reveal how many passed? Our school has been strangely silent. All I know is that DS passed. I don't feel I can ask as it looks like I'm just being nosy (which I am, clearly).

This year our Year 1 (very mixed intake, high % of SEN) had 100% pass rate. Last year it was somewhat lower (about 65%) but all but 2 of the children who failed last year passed at the second attempt.

The school had a good look at phonics teaching and gave some additional training to TAs. I must admit I was quite sceptical of this test when it was introduced but I can see it has some value now. (I'm a governor, that's how I know this stuff, it's not been communicated to all parents)

No, they don't have to reveal it. The LEA disk revealed to me that only 40% passed last year at my ds's school - not surprised they kept that quiet.

Dc6 passed this year. Dc 5 'failed' last year, but passed this year. It's a load of rubbish tbh.
