Academic Performance

At Mossbourne Riverside, we are proud of our pupils and the progress they make during their time with us. Our aim is for every child to enjoy learning, feel confident in school and achieve well across the curriculum, supported by caring staff and strong partnerships with families.  

Our Key Stage 2 outcomes are consistently outstanding, placing us in the top 1% of schools nationally and reflecting how well our pupils are prepared for the next stage of their education. Our focus is on ensuring every child leaves us with secure foundations in reading, writing, and mathematics, with the confidence and independence needed to thrive at secondary school.
