5th May 2024

Assessment Point 3

Next week is the start of Assessment Point 3 (AP3), the most significant of the school year. All the children in the following year groups, Y1 Y2 Y3 Y4 Y5 will do assessments. For the children of Y2 these tests will form part of an extended review of children’s work, progress and achievement, expected by the now non-statutory standard assessments tests (SATs) over the next few weeks.

For the children of FS2 assessment is continuous to understand their development towards achievement of the various Early Learning Goals.

For the young people of Y6 next week is the last week of preparation before the statutory standard assessment tests, which begin the week after.
