End of Key Stage Expectations

KS1 Assessment – A Summary

Children not meeting the WORKING TOWARDS ‘Nationally Expected Standard’ category for a pupil at the end of Year 2 WORKING TOWARDS the ‘Nationally Expected Standard’ for a pupil at the end of Year 2 WORKING AT the ‘Nationally Expected Standard’ for a pupil at the end of Year 2 WORKING AT GREATER DEPTH within the ‘Nationally Expected Standard’ for a pupil at the end of Year 2 For Science pupils will be grouped into 2 categories - Working at the expected standard, or a category for those pupils who do not meet the standard.

KS1 ‘Assessment’ in 2018

Statutory assessment

National curriculum tests

• English reading Paper 1: combined reading prompt and

answer booklet

• English reading Paper 2: reading booklet and reading

answer booklet

• Mathematics Paper 1: arithmetic
• Mathematics Paper 2: reasoning

Teacher assessment using the teacher assessment frameworks.

Formative classroom assessment

Determined by schools in line with their

• curriculum. Mereworth uses a data tracking

system called 21 Steps. We use ongoing assessments such as Maths Passport weekly tests for times tables & key number facts, spelling tests, termly reading assessments and maths tests: all completed in a way which does not pressurise the children.

READING 2018

Teacher Assessment Framework at end of KS1

The most crucial aspects of reading at the end of Key Stage 1 are:-

 Accuracy (decoding familiar and unfamiliar

words correctly)

 Fluency (speed and confidence)*  Comprehension (drawing meaning from text)

*DfE guidance for fluency is that if a child can read 90 words per minute this gives teachers an indication to support their judgement of what is meant by fluent reading. The inference seems to be that children who can read at such speeds will be able to meet the ‘Expected Standard’.

READING SKILLS ASSESSED

SAMPLE READING TEST QUESTIONS

Children will be asked to tick correct answers, they will be expected to find and retrieve facts and sometimes explain their answers. Reading Test 1 has combined text, questions and answers.

Reading Test 2 will have a more challenging separate reading booklet and reading answer booklet.

What is the ‘Expected Standard’ in writing?

Working at the expected standard The pupil can, after discussion with the teacher:

• write simple, coherent narratives about personal experiences and those
• f others (real or fictional)
• write about real events, recording these simply and clearly
• demarcate most sentences in their writing with capital letters and full

stops, and use question marks correctly when required

• use present and past tense mostly correctly and consistently
• use co-ordination (e.g. or / and / but) and some subordination (e.g. when

/ if / that / because) to join clauses

• segment spoken words into phonemes and represent these by

graphemes, spelling many of these words correctly and making phonically- plausible attempts at others

• spell many common exception words*
• form capital letters and digits of the correct size, orientation and

relationship to one another and to lower-case letters

• use spacing between words that reflects the size of the letters.

MATHS 2018

Teacher Assessment Framework at end of KS1

SAMPLE MATHS TEST QUESTIONS - ARITHMETIC

SAMPLE MATHS TEST QUESTIONS - REASONING

Some questions are read by the teacher. Look at the picture of Sam and Ben in question 5. Sam’s arm is fifty centimetres long. Ben’s arm is forty centimetres long. How much longer is Sam’s arm than Ben’s arm? Write your answer in the box.

SCIENCE 2018

Interim Teacher Assessment Framework at end of KS1 For Science pupils will be grouped into 2 categories. Working at the expected standard,

• r a category for those pupils

who do not meet the standard.

How are we preparing?

In MATHS we are preparing the children using: Maths Passport weekly tests for times tables & key number facts Quick test at the end of a unit of work Quick quiz- checking mental recall of number facts Termly tests for all mathematical concepts Home Learning tasks We are also encouraging the children to reason and explain their knowledge and problem solving as this is an important element of maths.

How are we preparing?

In ENGLISH we are preparing the children using: Big Write opportunities to support confidence with writing Grammar skills/Phonics/spelling Handwriting practice Guided reading lessons to focus on comprehension skills Home Learning tasks (Composition, Grammar, Comprehension)

How can you help?

At home, please try to: Read at least 4 times a week and note this in their diary; discussing the book not just ‘listening’ to them read. Complete the home learning tasks - support as necessary BUT do not complete it for them! Reinforce mental maths (number bonds, times tables, mental addition & subtraction, doubling & halving). To reach the expected standard children must have immediate recall of key number facts such as number bonds & expanded number bonds (1-10 10 -100 1-20 10-200) as well as 2x 5x 10x multiplication & division facts.

WHEN ARE THE TESTS ?

All KS1 SATs will be completed from May 2018

Some support can be given to children who have a Statement, or Educational Health Care Plan. Requests for additional time will be made by teachers using their knowledge of children and the children’s individual needs. Children who are unable to sit and work for a long period because of a disability or because of behavioural, emotional or social difficulties may receive some support. Children with English as an additional language and who have limited fluency in English may receive some support.

SPECIAL EDUCATIONAL NEEDS & DISABILITIES

REPORTING RESULTS

• Children’s progress, as well as their achievement, will

be measured and reported to you at the end of the year.

• Teacher assessments will be passed on to Year 3 so

the results can be used in planning for KS2 teaching.

• The test results are available mid-end of July

following internal and external moderation.

Early nights and lots of sleep Good attendance Good punctuality A good breakfast LOTS OF PRAISE AND ENCOURAGEMENT!
