Achievement is a key evaluation area in the Ofsted 2025 framework, judged across five levels – from Exemplary to Urgent Improvement. It considers how well pupils make progress across the curriculum and how effectively schools support all learners to achieve from their starting points.

This document outlines what inspectors will evaluate, what strong achievement looks like in practice, and the types of evidence schools can provide. It also shows how Kapow Primary supports progress through a well-thought-out, sequenced curriculum, assessment tools, and teacher support – helping schools deliver consistent, high-quality learning outcomes.
