Cllr Rupert Simmons, lead cabinet member for education, said: "One of our key priorities is to help improve standards in the classroom. Our primary schools have once again improved their results because of the hard work of our teaching staff and children.

"I would like to thank all our schools and especially those that have shown the greatest improvement."
