Performance Measures

Children at KS2 are required to sit tests in English and Maths. 

Children at the end of Key Stage 1, (Y2) are longer required to sit tests as a statutory requirement however, we are using the optional tests as information to support our teacher assessments.

Children at the end of Key Stage 2 (Y6) are required to sit 3 English papers – Reading Comprehension, Grammar & Punctuation and Spelling. These are marked externally. Writing is teacher assessed and marked internally. In addition they also sit 2 Maths papers – Arithmetic and Mathematical Reasoning.

The results from these tests are published in DfE Performance Tables annually. See below.
