At Darras Hall, we’re incredibly proud of the strong results our children achieve, which reflect the hard work, dedication, and enthusiasm of both our pupils and staff. Our statutory assessment results show that children at Darras Hall perform above national averages – something we’re very proud of.

However, we also know that these results are just one part of the picture. They provide a snapshot of progress at a moment in time, but they don’t capture everything that makes our school special. We’re committed to offering a full and well-rounded curriculum that helps every child to thrive – academically, socially, and emotionally.

We’re always looking for ways to improve and build on our successes to ensure that every child at Darras Hall has the best possible start to their learning journey.

EYFS (Reception) 2025

The Early Learning Goals (ELGs) are a set of key skills and knowledge that staff aim for children to reach by the end of Reception. They focus on important areas like communication, physical development, personal and social skills, literacy, and maths. If a child is said to be achieving a Good Level of Development, it means they have met the expected standard in the key areas that are most important for success in Year 1. Every child develops at their own pace, and the ELGs are just one way to understand and celebrate their progress so far.
