SATs During May children will be assessed against national standards to measure their progress throughout Key Stage One. This process will include carrying out some SATs papers. Tests will be presented in as low key way as possible to minimise any anxiety for children. Although it is a statutory requirement for children to undertake the tests, they merely inform our teacher assessments so if children don’t perform as they do in class we can take this into account.
