My DC is in a private school yer 2. They still have SATS....I heard that not all schools do them anymore...so why does ours? What are they for exactly? If notall schools participate what good are they?
Will it be bad for DC to miss them? We may travel in the new year and return ready for year three...will it mess DC up? We have plans for DC to attend a school while we are abroad...(with work) but if DC misses the SATS will the school mind? I just read on another thread that by year 3 schools are using results and levels to predict what level the kids will be on by year 6...is that true and what impact will not sitting year 2 SATS have?
