Newsletter No. 35- 21st June 2019
It has been an incredibly busy few weeks here at St. Margaret’s. As many of you will be aware, not only
have we had the Year Six SATS but also there has been statutory testing and assessments in Early
Years, phonics, Year Two and Year Six writing assessments.
I have mentioned about moderation in a previous newsletter and some parents have asked for more information on this. Even
though we are an academy, the local authority still have overall responsibility to ensure that assessments are administered fairly
and in keeping with Government guidance as well as ensuring that judgements made by teachers are fair, honest and accurate. This
year the local authority chose to observe our phonics administration, as well monitor our judgements in EYFS and Year Six writ-
ing. As I am sure you can appreciate, this does place additional pressure on the staff who have been absolutely fantastic through-
out. I am very proud to say that all moderators and assessors have given us a clean bill of health and have commented on: the
professionalism of staff; how well the staff know every child within their care; the quality of the work and observations that was
presented to them; our delightful children; the friendly, caring and nurturing ethos of the school and the wonderful public and
classroom displays.
In addition, my team and I are currently analysing all results and judgements and, although I cannot share anything yet (especially as
we still await the Year Six SATs results), needless to say I am one very happy Headteacher who is extremely proud of all of the
hard work, effort and determination not only shown by the pupils but also the staff.
Very well done to everybody for making St. Margaret’s such a wonderful school.
Mr D Huntingford
