SATs 2024

Year 6 SATs week will begin Monday 13th May 2024 and end on Thursday 16th May 2024. The purpose of SATs is to measure children's attainment in maths, reading, and grammar, punctuation and spelling (GPS). The data from these tests will provide vital information about your child’s attainment, support the transition to secondary schools, and identify where additional support is best targeted to individuals.

Please do not book any holidays during this week. Thank you in advance for your support.
