2.1 Patterns of attainment and reasons for attainment gaps The pattern of attainment is measured at both primary and secondary education, on the basis of a comparison between different groups of pupils, achieving an expected standard (Gov, 2015:3). The expected standard being a level 4 in reading, writing and maths at the end of their primary education and 5 good passes including English and maths at GCSE, which is their secondary education (Gov,2015:3).

outcomes. Smith and Parker (2016, p.136) stated that “nursing care’s goal is to help individuals maintain health or regain health”.
