- Day to day through questioning, observing and marking
- Half termly assessments in Reading, Writing & Maths
- Baseline and end of year tests for years 3, 4 and 5.
- EYFS Baseline and National Standardised Tests at the end of the Key Stage 1 & 2 (SATs)
How do we share this information with you?
We report your child’s progress at various points through the year including Parent Teacher meetings in autumn and spring terms and a final end of year report at the end of every school year. Our staff are always happy to discuss your child’s progress at any time and if you child needs additional support, we will meet with you to discuss the interventions and support your child will receive.

Year 6 SATs
Attainment (average scaled scores): Children’s results are reported using a scaled score. A scaled score of 100 represents the expected standard for each test. A child achieving a scaled score of 100 or more means they are working at or above the expected standard in the subject. Less than 100 means that they may need more support to reach the expected standard. The highest scaled score possible at KS2 is 120, and the lowest is 80.
