Results • The children are teacher assessed throughout the year • The tests are used to inform final teacher judgements. • Report only teacher assessments to the L.E.A(Local education authorities)
What can you do to help? • Read together every day and ask questions about the story • Use number problems in every day life, at the shops, on the bus, telling the time etc. • Practice handwriting/spellings • Keep calm-KS1 SATs are done as subtly as possible. It is a quiz not a test.
