With this guide comes great preparation for children aged 7-11, who are undergoing their Key Stage 2 English SATs exam. Packed full of practice questions, this guide will no doubt improve your child’s learning and ultimately increase their SATs scores.
Not only has this guide been created using the new National Curriculum, we have done our utmost to ensure you and your child with a fun-filled guide that is easy to read and fun to do.
THE NATIONAL CURRICULUM
From the summer of 2016, the SATs for children will undergo considerable changes as dictated by the new national curriculum.
The purpose of the new and revised SATs is to ensure these tests remain rigorous and therefore, they will prove to be of a much higher standard to previous SATs.
With the new national curriculum comes a new marking scheme. Whilst we cannot provide what this marking scheme consists of, we can assure you that children’s tests will be marked externally. The scores of these tests will be used to monitor the progress of each school’s performance, which is done via Ofsted reports and league tables.
Ultimately, your child’s scores in their SATs will be used in conjunction with classroom assessments, in order to provide a general overview of a child’s attainment and progression during that academic year.
For more information on the new national curriculum, please visit the Government website.
