Information regarding Key Stages:

Childrens' school experience in Northern Ireland is marked out in Key Stages
Key Stage One: Primary 1 - Primary 4
Key Stage Two: Primary 5 - Primary 7

Key Stages Three and Four are undertaken at post-primary level, leading eventually to GCSE level.
Children undergo standardised tests in English and Mathematics at the end of each Key Stage. This gives each child a placement on a ten-point scale, called a Level of Attainment.

At the end of Key Stage 1, (P4) an average pupil will have reached Level Two
At the end of Key Stage 2, (P7) an average child will have reached Level Four

Below are the percentage results for children attending Finaghy Primary School, compared to Northern Ireland averages for the year 2006 - 2007:

* Note that we have less Level Two pupils than the NI Averages because of the higher numbers attaining Level Three.

* Note that we have less Level Four pupils than the NI Averages because of the higher numbers attaining Level Five.
