Waiting for results of the KS2 Sats and realized I dont really understand them to well .... After some research I still dont understand them.
My DD did the level 6 papers in both English and Maths, no real idea how difficult that level is! I found the this years grade boundaries for Level 5, which I am more familiar with.
Eng lvl 5 - 36-50, Maths lvl 5 79-100 and Spelling lvl 5 - 54-70
Sorry if I am being ignorant but is this percentages? Do you only need to get 36% to get a level 5 in English (seems a bit low), or a 54% in spelling? 79% in Maths sounds about right but its confusing!
Then what about level six? My understanding is that as long as you pass level 5 (ie 36% in Eng, 79 in math, 54 in Spelling) then your level six is marked. But I cant find any level six grade boundaries, maybe there isn't any in which case what is the minimum score you need to get to have passed the level six paper? What is you pass level 6 but fail level five?
My Primary school isn't much help as I asked the Y6 teacher and she gave me some waffle that I took to mean she didn't really know.
Any one know more than me?
