Changes at Primary School
A new national curriculum Removal of the old system of assessment nationally
The case for change
Primary school Secondary school
Level 4 47% achieve five good GCSEs 75% achieve five good GCSEs Level 2 GCSEs
“Secondary school ready”
- Greater prescribed content (in
English, Maths and Science)
- Higher attainment expectation
at the end of key stages
- Focus on “depth” of learning
- “Race” through curriculum content to reach the
next level (e.g. level 6)
- Teaching a narrow range of skills and knowledge
- A qualitative description doesn’t convert
accurately to numerical score!
- Confusing way of reporting test results
- Parents also found levels confusing

Summary
- Huge changes and upheaval
- Higher standards means that some children
who were at age expectations, now are not
- We’ve designed a comprehensive and robust
assessment system
- However in short term, some inefficiency and
unfamiliarity
- And limited historic data track – reliability?
