Pupils make a little bit of history with maths SATs

HARD-working schoolchildren across the borough have yielded Camden its best-ever maths results in tests for 11-year-olds.
Following on from last year’s fine results, pupils have once again raised the bar in the key stage 2 standard attainment tests (SATs), as more children than ever reached the expected standards in principal subjects.
The figures  show huge improvements in English, maths and ­science.
The number of children reaching the expected level in maths is up from 72 per cent last year to a Camden-best of 76 per cent this year.
English and science both enjoyed a 1 per cent rise nationwide, but this rocketed to as much as 6 per cent in science among Camden’s students. The celebrated scores also ensured the borough a place in the top 15 table for the most improved local authorities in the country.
Andrew Mennear, spokesman for Camden Council schools, said: “This is a fantastic set of results and a real credit to the hard work and dedication of our students, teachers and schools staff.”
