Number of state-funded mainstream primary schools not reaching the key stage 2 floor standard.

Schools will be deemed to be underperforming if their performance is below the 'floor standard'. In 2016, a school will be above the floor if:

a) at least 65% of pupils meet the expected standard in reading, writing and mathematics; or

b) the school achieves sufficient progress scores in all three subjects. (At least -5 in English reading, -5 in mathematics and -7 in English writing)

Only state-funded mainstream schools with 11 or more eligible pupils are included in the floor standard calculations. Closed schools, including those which closed during the academic year and reopened as a different type of school (for example, a sponsored academy), are excluded from the floor standard. Schools which do not have a figure published for each of the above measures (for example, where the figure is suppressed due to maladministration) are also excluded.

The description 'state-funded mainstream primary schools' refers to those schools maintained by the local authority, including academies, free schools and city technology colleges (CTCs) but exclude state-funded special schools, independent schools, independent special schools, non-maintained special schools, hospital schools, special academies and pupil referral units.. Figures for hospital schools and pupil referral units are excluded. The 'England state-funded schools' figures here may be slightly different from the 'England state-funded schools only' figures in the national tables. The figures presented here have been calculated on the same basis as the LA figures in this table (i.e. including pupils with missing results or pending maladministration).
