What are SATs?

SATs are statutory assessments carried out by all state schools. They assess how your child’s abilities compare nationally with other children in the same year group.

At the end of a Key Stage children are judged to be either working at the expected standard or not. Some children may be judged to be working above the expected standard.

Your child will be assessed at Key Stage 1 (KS1) during Year 2, at age 7. At KS1 assessment is based on the class teacher’s assessment of the children’s ability.

Further SATs testing takes place at Key Stage 2 (KS2), when your child will take part in National Curriculum tests in reading, maths and grammar, punctuation and spelling at the end of Year 6 (usually age 11). Writing is assessed using teacher assessment of pupils’ writing over a number of pieces of work, measured against a list of statements.

At KS2 children’s raw test scores are converted to a scaled score, where 100 is the national expectation. The results of these test are used to measure the individual progress a pupil has made in their time at primary school.
