How the table is worked out
Ranked on 2025 KS2 results: the share reaching the expected standard in reading, writing and maths. One year and one figure: each school's place among Barnsley's primaries with a published figure that year; the share reaching the higher standard breaks a tie. Schools on the same figures share a place. A school whose figure DfE hides (a small year group) or does not publish is not ranked, never put last. Source: DfE school performance tables.
