It's nearly time for SATs!

This week Y6 have been working exceptionally hard preparing for their SATs. 

The week beginning Monday 13th May 2024, pupils in Y6 across the country, will take the key stage 2 (KS2) national curriculum tests – commonly known as SATs.

These tests, alongside teacher assessment of English writing and science, are used to measure school performance and to make sure individual pupils have the support that they need as they move into secondary school.

The tests are  in English grammar, punctuation and spelling, English reading and mathematics. They take place every morning from Monday through to Thursday.

The rest of the junior site have been very quiet and thoughtful whilst the tests take place as the children sit in the shared activity area, so that they don't disrupt the Y6 as they practice ahead of the actual week of testing.  It has been a good practice for everyone! We wish Y6 all the best in the real ones, they have worked so hard and deserve to do well.
