11 READING 2018 PAPER 1 One paper based on reading comprehension of three to four different, un-linked texts, with a total of 35 to 40 questions. (Totalling 50 marks). The least demanding texts will come first with the following texts increasing in level of difficulty. Questions worth 1,2,or 3 marks each. There is a focus on being able to answer inferential questions based on the text. Lasts for 1 hour (no reading time to start) (marked externally)

17 WRITING 2018 There is now a greater focus on the progress children make throughout the school year, as opposed to a test-day snapshot of what they know. Teachers will assess children s writing composition. Children s results for English writing will be a judgement of their work across Year 6. Children's grammar, punctuation and spelling skills will be assessed as part of their writing, but their creativity and writing style will also be evaluated. Schools will moderate their judgements with other local schools and may be moderated by external agencies too.

18 SCIENCE 2018 SCIENCE SAMPLING - Every Two Years This year, we may be asked to complete a pilot test. 5 children will be chosen from the cohort. Science sampling has been reintroduced. Schools that are selected will be notified by 23 rd April, and are legally obliged to participate if chosen. Results will be published at a national level; neither schools nor parents will be given their children s individual results, and they won t be used in league tables.

19 WHEN ARE THE TESTS? All KS2 SATs will be held in the week beginning 14 th May Date Monday 14 th May English grammar, punctuation (Paper1) and spelling (Paper 2) Tuesday 15 th May English Reading Wednesday 16 th May Maths Arithmetic Test (Paper 1) Maths Reasoning Paper (Paper 2) Thursday 17 th May Maths Reasoning Paper (Paper 3)

20 EXPLAINING THE RESULTS Your child will receive a scaled score based upon the total number of marks that they receive in the test. This will determine if they are working at, below or above the expected standard. A scaled score of 110+ indicates your child is working above the national standard. A scaled score of 100+ indicates your child is working at the national standard. A scaled score of less than 100 indicates your child is working below the national standard. The national standard will not be determined until the tests have been completed nationally. A pupil s scaled score will be based on their raw score. The raw score is the total number of marks a pupil receives in a test, based on the number of questions they answered correctly. The pupil s raw score will be translated into a scaled score using a conversion table. A pupil who achieves the national standard will have demonstrated sufficient knowledge in the areas assessed by the tests. DfE 2016

21 REPORTING RESULTS Children s progress, as well as their achievement, will be measured and reported on in school performance tables. Teacher assessments will be passed on to secondary schools so they can be used as part of the planning process for Year 7 teaching. Your child s results are sent home at the end of the summer term. These will show you if your child has met the national standard.

22 HELPING AT HOME Try not to put pressure on your child. Support with homework and the targets which will be discussed at parents evening. Read regularly and discuss a variety of texts not just listening to your child read. Short bursts of arithmetic questions, times tables and problem solving etc. Please remember that the methods that we teach in school are the methods that the children will be assessed against. Please don t use previous SATs Papers to practise at home as these are used to prepare and assess children in school.

23 WE RECOMMEND Early nights and lots of sleep Good attendance Good punctuality A good breakfast LOTS OF PRAISE AND ENCOURAGEMENT!
