Examinations and Accreditations

Key Stage 2 Performance Data

In line with statutory requirements, below are the most recent end of Key Stage 2 assessment outcomes for our pupils.

Please note: due to the unique and bespoke curriculum offer at Harlow Fields School and College, many of our pupils are not entered for standardised assessments. Where relevant, outcomes are reported.

  • Percentage of pupils who achieved the expected standard in reading, writing and maths (combined):
    Data not applicable / not published due to low pupil numbers or individualised learning pathways.
  • Percentage of pupils who achieved a higher standard in reading, writing and maths (combined):
    Data not applicable / not published due to low pupil numbers or individualised learning pathways.
  • Progress scores in reading, writing and maths:
    Progress data is not published where pupil cohorts are too small to ensure statistical reliability or anonymity.
  • Average scaled scores in reading and maths:
    Data not applicable / not published due to low pupil numbers or individualised curriculum access.

Accreditation Pathways

At Harlow Fields School and College, we are proud of the personalised pathways our pupils and students follow to achieve meaningful and recognised outcomes. As a special school, we focus on ensuring every learner makes progress that is relevant and ambitious for them — whether that’s through academic qualifications, life skills, or preparation for adulthood.

We offer a wide range of accreditation opportunities tailored to meet the individual needs and abilities of our learners, including:

  • ASDAN Awards and Short Courses
  • Entry Level Certificates (ELC)
  • Functional Skills in English, Maths and ICT
  • Personal Progress and Personal and Social Development qualifications
  • Vocational Qualifications
  • Preparation for Adulthood programmes

Our curriculum and assessment approach is designed to support each learner to achieve their potential, celebrate their successes, and prepare for their next steps in education, work, or independent living.
