2. Scaled scores Scaled scores are used all over the world. They help test results to be reported consistently from one year to the next. National curriculum tests try to be as similar as possible year on year, but slight differences in difficulty will occur between years. Scaled scores maintain their meaning over time so that two pupils achieving the same scaled score on two different tests will have demonstrated the same attainment. The Government is unable to give full information about what the scale will look like yet. They need to wait until pupils have taken the tests and the tests have been marked before they can set the national standard and the rest of the scale. Achievement for All
