Reports & Results
We are proud to share the latest reports and results for St Stephen’s, which reflect the achievements of our children and the strength of our school community.
Our 2025–2026 Results
Our 2025–2026 results are exceptional! Behind every percentage is a child we know and care about.
A child who has worked hard, kept going when something felt difficult, grown in confidence, discovered new strengths and, sometimes, surprised themselves with what they can do.
These results belong to our children. They reflect their curiosity, determination and enthusiasm for learning. We see all of that every day in the questions they ask, the marvellous mistakes they learn from, the challenges they keep going with and the pride they take in doing their best.
They also reflect the culture we work hard to create at St Stephen’s, where children are encouraged to support one another, celebrate success and approach learning with kindness, confidence and ambition. Our motto of building one another up in love and learning sits at the heart of that.

Progress of which we are especially proud
Our Key Stage 2 progress scores show how much progress pupils made during Key Stage 2.
St Stephen’s | Richmond | National | |
|---|---|---|---|
Reading | +3.1 | +1.9 | 0 |
Writing | +3.5 | +1.5 | 0 |
Maths | +2.2 | +1.6 | 0 |
A score of 0 represents the national average, so positive scores show that pupils made more progress than pupils nationally with similar starting points. At St Stephen’s, progress in reading, writing and maths was above both the national comparison point and the Richmond averages.
These scores help show how far our children have travelled in their learning. They take account of where pupils started, not just the level they reached at the end, and recognise the progress made along the way. Every child’s journey is different, and these figures reflect the many individual steps, breakthroughs and moments of growing confidence that sit behind the final outcome.

SIAMS Report – October 2023
“Being part of St Stephen’s caring and loving school community is transformational. The lives of pupils and adults are enriched because of leaders’ unswerving determination to ‘build each other up in love and learning’.”
Our most recent SIAMS inspection recognised the way our Christian vision shapes life at St Stephen’s and the opportunities provided for our children.
The report reflects the contribution of our children, staff, governors, parents and wider community to the life of the school and the way our vision of building each other up in love and learning is lived out across St Stephen’s.
SIAMS, the Statutory Inspection of Anglican and Methodist Schools, explores how a school’s theologically rooted Christian vision drives its work and enables it to live out its foundation as a Church school.
