  3. The SATs Tests 2019 The SATs changed in 2016, to reflect the New National Curriculum. The children will complete tests in the following areas: • Spelling, Punctuation and Grammar (SPAG) • Reading • Maths

  4. Up to 2015 2016 onwards

  5. Spelling, Punctuation and Grammar Test (SPAG) The grammar, punctuation and spelling test will consist of two parts: a grammar and punctuation paper requiring short answers, lasting 45 minutes, and a spelling test of 20 words, lasting around 15 minutes. The grammar and punctuation test will include two sub-types of questions: • Selected response, e.g. ‘Identify the adjectives in the sentence below’ • Constructed response, e.g. ‘Correct/complete/rewrite the sentence below,’ or, ‘The sentence below has an apostrophe missing. Explain why it needs an apostrophe.’

  6. Spelling Test – 20 questions 1)The children were …………….. to go on the ride next. 2) The skydiver released her ……………… 3) Mr Fletcher struggled with the ………………….. of some of the words in the spelling test! 1)guaranteed 2)parachute 3)pronunciation

  7. These spellings are based on the spelling patterns in the new National Curriculum for Year 6 (e.g. words ending in -ant, -ance, -ent, -ence) as well as words from the Statutory Word List for both Years 3 & 4 and Years 5 & 6.

  8. Reading Paper • The reading test will be a single paper with questions based on three passages of text. • Children will have one hour, including reading time, to complete the test.

  9. Types of questions: • Information retrieval, e.g. ‘Where does Charlie leave his scooter?’ • Ranking/ordering, e.g. ‘Number the events below to show the order in which they happen in the story’ • Find and copy, e.g. ‘Find and copy one word that suggests that training a guide dog is a long process.’ • Grammar/Text knowledge, e.g. Look at the section headed: Play your Part! Why is the word ‘pupdates’ in inverted commas? • Authorial technique, e.g. ‘Look at the paragraph beginning: Suddenly, As I stepped… How does the writer make the flowers seem dangerous?’ • Open-ended response, e.g. Read from the paragraph beginning: ’Wake up Charlie…’ to the end of the page. How does this ending create suspense?

  10. Writing There is not a Writing SATs paper. Your child will be assessed as to whether they have met the expected standard based on the work they have produced in class. Most children will be judged as to whether they are… • Working towards the expected standard (WTS) • Working at the expected standard (EXS) • Working at greater depth within the expected standard (GDS)

  11. KS2 Teacher Assessment Framework for Writing

  12. Our final writing assessment data is not submitted until the end of June. Assessments are made by the class teachers, but we also work alongside Y6 teachers from local schools to ensure there is consistency. Approximately every four years, we will also have an External Moderation Visit from a moderator employed by the LA to check we are assessing the work consistently. Mrs Rowbotham is employed as a LA Moderator for writing.

  13. Maths Children will sit three papers in maths: Paper 1: arithmetic, 30 minutes Format of questions and responses:

  14. Papers 2 and 3: reasoning, 40 minutes per paper

  15. Marking the Tests For each of the tests, based on their raw score, your child will be given a scaled score. The Government take all the raw scores from across the country, calculate the average and set that as the expected scaled score of 100. Scaled scores range from 80 – 120. A score of 100 and above will represent that they have achieved the national standard. A score of 110+ is classified as a high score, which means they are working at Greater Depth.

  16. Along with your child’s Annual End of Year Report, you will receive… • the raw score, scaled score and whether or not they have attained the national standard for each of the SATs tests • a teacher assessment for writing and science • this year we are not required to make a teacher assessed judgement for maths and reading

  17. What can you still be doing to help your childHelp them to practise… • Complete homework • Use the A3 revision sheets for SPAG and Maths – ask the children to teach you or make up quizzes and games • Times tables up to 12 x 12 • Get plenty of sleep • Eat well • Have plenty of downtime
