The National Curriculum and (SATs).
The National Curriculum is divided into two key stages and Standard Assessment Tests and Tasks (SATs) are taken at the end of these Key stages.Â Â We also administer optional SATs for Years 3 â€“ 5.
Levels of Attainment
|Â Level 1||Level 2||Level 3||Level 4||Level5|
|Â AvYr 2||Av Yr 6|
As you can see, the SATs levels do not necessarily match the year your child is in.Â At the end of Year 2 you may have achieved a level 1 or 3 in your SATs.Â Likewise, at the end of Year 6 you may have achieved a level 3 or 5.Â Each level is sub-divided in to three sub-levels; C-B-A.Â The average child may make two sub levels of progress each year, for example: 2C to 2A.
Â Teacher Assessments (T/A)
Alongside SATs results, you may also find an assessment Year 2 and 6).Â Teacher assessment may differ from the SAT results, as the SATs can only assess children’s knowledge on a particular day, whereas the teacher can provide an overview of your child’s progress, in a particular subject, over a longer period of time. Both are useful pieces of information.
