PRIMARY schools across Southend have been ranked according to the number of children achieving the expected standards in reading, writing and maths.
The Department for Education publishes the annual tables detailing the performance of every school in the country based on the results of the Key Stage Two SATs — taken by Year Six pupils to test their reading, writing and maths.
And while results are certainly not 'everything' when it comes to primary education, it is useful to know where your children's school ranks.
Atop the table sits Hinguar Community Primary School, in Southend, where 97 per cent of children are achieving the expected standard in all three categories.
Just below is Bournes Green Junior School, with 85 per cent.
Nationally, 65 per cent of pupils reached the expected standard in all of reading, writing and maths - combined - in 2019, up from 64 per cent in 2018.
Each school's results is detailed below.
