Year 2 Statutory Assessment Tests (SATs)

Year 2 children will undertake SATs across May this academic year.  These test provide some evidence of how the children are performing in Reading, in English and Mathematics.  Teacher Assessment is how we arrive at our final judgements at the end of this key phase of learning.  The children's achievement is reported in the 'end of year school report.'
