Early Years Attainment by Pupil Characteristics
This new DCSF report shows that over 30% of five-year-old boys from poor families cannot read or write, despite efforts to help them catch up with their peers. Moreover, 75% of white boys from disadvantaged families are failing to understand the basics of English and mathematics.
