Presentation transcript:

Our Lady & St.Gerard’s RC Primary School Understanding Key Stage 2 SATS

What are SATs?  SATs is the name given by the Government to the statutory tests in Mathematics, English and Science, taken by all children in Local Authority schools in the U.K. at the end of Key Stage 1, 2 & 3 (ages 7, 11 and 14).  They are referred to as 'SATs' (Standard Assessment Tasks).

What do SATs tests show?  The idea of the SATs is to show what pupils have learnt and retained during the year.  The tests help our teachers and their new teachers to learn more about the strengths and weaknesses of what your child understands about a subject.

What subjects are the children tested in?  Year 6 children are tested in Maths, English and Science.  The children are tested on all of the knowledge and skills they have developed throughout Key Stage 2.

What form will the tests take? English Reading (45 minutes + 15 mins reading time) Writing LONGER TASK45 minutes – Handwriting marked SHORT TASK 20 minutes Spelling 10 mins Maths Mental Maths (20 minutes) Written paper TEST A Non Calculator (45 minutes) Written paper TEST B Calculator (45 minutes) Science Science (TEST A) 45 minutes Science (TEST B) 45 minutes

When are the Key Stage 2 SATS?

How will the tests be marked ?  Year 6 SATs tests are sent away to an external marker for marking and arrive back in school just before the end of the Summer term.  Pupils will receive their SATs levels with their end of year report.

What can I expect my child to achieve? Level 2 Below National Expectations Level 3 Level 4 Expected Level at the end of Key Stage 2 / Year 6 Level 5 Above National Expectations achieved by 20 – 30% of pupils

What do the Levels mean?  It is expected that the majority of 11 year old children will achieve Level 4 by the end of Year 6.  However, for some children achieving Level 3 is a real success for that particular individual.  A child achieving Level 5 is working at a high level. A child who passes GCSE at grade C has achieved level seven.

Can my child fail a SATs test?  It is important that Children understand they are not going to 'pass' or 'fail' the test - it will just show what they have learned and what they can do.  The SATS data is used to sort pupils into their sets at high school.

How do pupils prepare for the tests in school? 1.Ongoing Programmes of Study 2.Identify key areas for revision / consolidation 3.Homework tasks 4.Old SATs questions related to topics being covered 5.Practice SATs tests 6.Smaller booster groups

How can parents help their children?  Ensure homework is completed  Don’t put too much pressure on the child  Use fun websites for revision (See list)  Study guides / revision books are available
