INFORMATION FOR PARENTS ON KEY STAGE 2 SATS Randal Cremer Primary School Friday 29 th January 2016

WHAT DOES SATS STAND FOR? Statutory Assessment Tasks and Tests (also includes Teacher Assessment) At the end of Key Stage 1 (at age 7) and at the end of Key Stage 2 (at age 11) 28 February 2016

WHO TAKES THEM? Nationally, most children in Year 6 in take the SATS. A few children who are working significantly below the level of the test do not take part.

HOW ARE THE CHILDREN ASSESSED? This is the first year that children will be tested in the 2014 new National Curriculum. They will be given a ‘raw score’ how many marks and a ‘scaled scored’ that is between 80 and February 2016

WHAT DOES THIS MEAN? Children with a ‘Scaled Score’ of 100+ will be working at Age Expected. This means they are secure in the curriculum for Year 6, in fact they are secondary ready. Some children will be working at Greater Depth. 28 February 2016

WHAT IS TESTED.

SCIENCE 28 February 2016 Science sampling tests for children at the end of Key Stage 2 recommence in June on a biennial basis. Only 5 children randomly selected from 1900 schools in England to take 3 science papers (25mins. each)

HOW CAN PARENTS HELP? The best help is by taking an interest in your child’s learning and progress. Giving positive encouragement. Attending meetings and parents evenings. Supporting regular and thorough home learning. Fun websites: MyMaths/BBC Bitesize. Not putting children under too much pressure. Ensuring children arrive for tests: -in good time - with equipment – pen, water bottle, snack, etc., -having had breakfast -having gone to bed at a reasonable time! 28 February 2016

HOMEWORK/BOOSTER/EASTER SCHOOL There is an increase in the amount of homework your child is expected to complete. Please do not believe them if they say they haven’t got any. If your child has been selected for a Booster Class they must attend. Easter School will take place the first week of the Easter Holiday. The focus will be on test techniques and developing revision habits. Your child must attend if possible. We need to give all our pupils the best opportunity to do well in their tests. For the first time, children will be expected to re-sit the SATS if they are not working at age expected when they start Secondary School. 28 February 2016

READING, GPS AND MATHS TESTS ARE ALL EXTERNALLY MARKED. TEST RESULTS ARE RETURNED TO THE SCHOOL IN JULY AND WILL BE REPORTED, ALONG WITH TEACHER ASSESSMENTS, TO PARENTS BY THE END OF THE YEAR. 28 February 2016 Reporting To Parents

HOPEFULLY THIS HAS BEEN HELPFUL AND NOT DAUNTING! THANKS FOR COMING ALONG TODAY! 28 February 2016
