  1. Welcome to the Year 6 & Year 2 SATS Meeting Mrs Scattergood & Mrs Finney

  2. What does SATs Stand For? • Statutory Assessment Tasks and Tests (also includes Teacher Assessment). • Usually taken at the end of Key Stage 1 (at age 7) and at the end of Key Stage 2 (at age 11).

  3. Key Stage 1 SATs • English – Reading Comprehension - Spelling, Punctuation and Grammar • Maths - Paper A - Arithmetic - Paper B - Reasoning

  4. Key Stage 2 SATs • English – Reading Comprehension - Spelling, Punctuation and Grammar • Maths - Paper A – Arithmetic - Paper B & C - Reasoning

  5. What level should children be at? • The previous national curriculum levels have been removed, children will now be given a raw score - the actual number of marks they get - being translated into a scaled score. • You will be told their raw score, scaled score and whether they have reached the national standard. The score needed to achieve the national standard hasn't yet been announced. • Children will also be matched against ‘performance descriptors’ - such as working towards the expected level, working at the expected level and working above the expected level

  6. What help can children have? • In the reading test, children must read the text and questions by themselves, but MAY have help recording their answers, if this is done in a normal classroom situation. • In maths teachers can read questions to any child who asks, some children will have the whole paper read to them, on a one to one. • Teachers can encourage, but not guide or say that an answer is correct or incorrect. • Words on a test paper can be transcribed where a marker may not be able to read a child’s answer. If this is done in normal classroom practice.

  7. When do these tests happen? KS1 – Y2 Maths and English SATs usually take place in May (they're not date-specific and are not given all at once – assessments are spread out over a period of time, and teachers try to work them into the normal routine in such a way that students may not feel like they’re being tested. KS1 SATs are not timed.

  8. How is SATs week organised? • All children must sit the tests at the same time. • Test papers can only be opened 1 hour before the tests begin. • Tests are completed in classrooms, with any displays that may help covered over. • Children are divided into groups for test administration to ensure they are properly supported and feel secure.

  9. How can you help? • Not putting children under too much pressure • Ensuring children arrive for tests: - in good time - having had breakfast - having gone to bed at a reasonable time

  10. Thank you. • Questions
