This is the percentage of pupils in state funded primary schools meeting the expected standard in reading, writing and mathematics (RWM) at key stage 2 (KS2) whose first language is known or believed to be English.

The expected standard in reading and mathematics is a scaled score of 100 or above. The expected standard in writing is a teacher assessment of 'working at the expected standard' (EXS) or 'working at greater depth within the expected standard' (GDS).

The new expected standards were designed to be broadly similar but are not equivalent to an old level 4b. The performance descriptors, used by teachers in the standard setting process, were developed with an understanding of the performance of pupils working at level 4b. However, given the curricula differences, there is not a direct equivalence between the new expected standard and level 4b in previous years and data pre-2016 are not directly comparable.

'First Language' is the language to which a child was initially exposed during early development and continues to be exposed to in the home or in the community. It does not mean that pupils are necessarily fluent in a language other than English or cannot speak English. This include those whose language is "not known, but believed to be other than English".

All children in state funded primary schools, including most academies and free schools, are required to take part in key stage 2 national curriculum assessments before they more to secondary school. Data is not available for 2020 and 2021 as assessments were cancelled in these years due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
