I would love to visit that school. Sounds like she has it all sussed. I hope those children she has given such a fantastic headstart to have great opportunities at secondary too.

Presumably because her school will be so popular she is less likely to have children who can barely speak English arriving very close to ks2 test time.

Any child arriving late in Year 6 with no English can be removed from school data ....
