1. Assessment Procedures
September 2018

2. Why change? Issues with the current system Lack of clarity
Too subjective
Inconsistent with Year 6 SATs data
Difficult to follow
Inefficient

3. How is Year 6 National Data
presented?
Standardised Score, from 80 – 120
100 is national expectation
110 is generally considered to be Greater Depth
Writing is Teacher Assessed, no Teacher Assessment in Reading, GPS or Maths – test scores only from May 2019
Progress is measured from the Year 2 baseline

4. Rationale behind new system
In line with the national approach
Easier for parents to follow
Parent questionnaire June 2018 showed parents wanted more numerical data
More robust, less subjective
More manageable for staff

5. The new system! Will mirror the Year 6 system
Children will have tests 3 times a year (as they do now)
Raw scores will be converted to standardised scores, ranging from 80 – 120
Expected standard will be 100
Greater depth will be 110
Progress will be measured from Year 3 baseline and also across the year by comparing the standardised score each time
‘Soft’ data e.g. IEP targets will be used where appropriate, e.g. for children with SEND.

6. Termly Progress Report
Conversions

7. The system will be reviewed at the end of the academic year.
