Standards in reading, writing, and maths among Year 6 pupils in England have improved, yet they remain below pre-pandemic levels.
Recent Sats results reveal that 61 percent of students reached the expected standards in these subjects, a slight increase from 60 percent last year. However, this is still short of the 65 percent achieved in 2019, the last year Sats were conducted before the Covid-19 lockdowns.
The government expressed concern about the "far too many pupils" not meeting the expected levels. The previous administration aimed for 90 percent of pupils to reach these standards by 2030.
