Working at the expected standard
Working at greater depth within the expected standard
Each standard contains a number of ‘pupil can’ statements.
Teachers need to judge a pupil demonstrates attainment of all statements within a standard and all the statements in the preceding standard(s).

11. What information will get ?
As part of the children’s reports you will receive their results:
raw score
a standardised score
code used to show test outcomes

12. Raw Score / Scaled score
Children’s raw score reflect how many mark they scored correctly out of the total. Reading – out of 50 marks GPaS – out of 70 (50 for grammar / 20 spelling) Maths – out of 110 (40 for arithmetic / 35 for each reasoning) Scaled score reflects the child’s score against the national; with 100 reflecting an expected score and 110 considered to be greater depth.

13. Code Description A Pupil was absent for the test AS

14. Progress measure how does it work?
Stage 1:
All other pupils nationally with average score at KS1 of 18.0
This is Chris
Back to Chris
Chris’ results are
KS1 APS = 18.0
KS2 reading
score = 117
He got 1 point more than the average for those with similar starting points = +1
All these pupils’ KS2 scores are added together and divided by the number of pupils in the group
= average (national mean) reading score is 116
