Your support helps us to tell the story

From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.

At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.

The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.

Your support makes all the difference.

Over the following 32 pages are the results of national English, maths and science tests taken last May in English primary schools

Schools are listed by local authority.

The tables show the percentage of pupils reaching at least Level 4 of the national curriculum in last year's tests.

Schools are ranked on an aggregate of scores in all three subjects.

Proportion of pupils nationally reaching Level 4 or above in English 65 per cent, in maths 59 per cent and in science 69 per cent.

$ Means schools have not provided information for that subject.

@ Means that scripts for this subject have been stolen/lost.

In the 1997 column the sign * means that the school was not included in that year's tables.

Figures collated by the Department for Education and Employment.
