4. Key Stage 1  Cambridgeshire’s performance has provisionally improved by around 1ppt.  Nationally performance also improved slightly and performance in Cambridgeshire is broadly in-line with the national level in both Writing and Maths but marginally (1ppt) below in Reading.  Note that in 2013, this cohort was just below the national level in the EYFSP %GLD. 4

11. Key Stage 4 (GCSE) 11  Note that the Key Stage 4 results for 2014 and 2015 are not comparable with those in previous years.  Early indications are that Cambridgeshire’s end of Key Stage 4 performance has improved:  A 4ppt rise in the proportion of pupils gaining 5+ GCSE grades A*-C, including English and Maths (to 59.6%)  A 2ppt rise in the proportion of pupils making expected progress in English (to 73.7%), and an  8ppt rise in the proportion making expected progress in Maths (to 72.2%).  However, the proportion of disadvantaged pupils achieving 5+ GCSE grades A*-C, including English and Maths has provisionally only improved by 1ppt (to 32.2%) and therefore the gap has widened.
