2  Objective 1: To inform parents about changes to the curriculum and assessment procedures  Objective 2: To inform parents about the tracking of assessment within each year group in order to understand if their child is on track / making progress

3  New National Curriculum  No more assessment levels  Each school is responsible for publishing its curriculum and assessment framework  Schools will be held to account both on the progress they make and on how well their pupils achieve  One attainment target: “By the end of each key stage, pupils are expected to know, apply and understand the matters, skills and processes specified in the relevant programme of study”

4 What about pupils’ progression in a world without levels ? The research for the review of the National Curriculum showed that it should focus on ‘ fewer things in greater depth ’, in secure learning which persists, rather than relentless, over-rapid progression. The new primary curriculum is stated in year-by-year blocks, which helps teachers trace lines of development through key areas of subjects, yet still focusing on the necessary detail of each subject.

5  Aren’t Levels a simple measure of attainment and progress ? They were. And that was one of the problems. They were too simple. A child could have serious gaps in their knowledge, understanding and skills and yet still be claimed to broadly fit a levels descriptor. This encouraged children to move on to new curriculum content without secure grasp of key areas of a subject. To ensure secure understanding of key ideas and essential knowledge, we need to engage with the detail of learning. To know that a child has understood what a metaphor is, or understands the equals sign is the real stuff of education, not whether a child is ‘Level 3a’.

6  How can a school report to parents without using levels ? Levels are highly general. Parents need more detail of the strengths and weaknesses of each child in order to better support the child at home.

7  Emerging Year 3 This child is working in the year 3 curriculum, but not grasping all key objectives.  Expected Year 3 This child is working at the expected level within the year 3 curriculum and is on track to be ‘secondary ready’ by the end of Year 6.  Exceeding Year 3 This child is working above the expected level within the year 3 curriculum and is on track to be ‘secondary ready’ by the end of Year 6.

13  The raw score on the test (the total achieved marks out of the total available marks) will be converted into a scaled score. Translating raw scores into scaled scores ensures performance can be reported on a consistent scale for all children.  Additionally, each child will receive an overall result indicating whether or not he or she has achieved the required standard on the test.  A standard-setting exercise will be conducted on the first live test in 2016 in order to determine the scaled score needed for a child to be considered to have met the standard.
