Dd was at a junior school which didn't do SATs or give levels. Basically they learnt stuff, had an end of term exam then were given a percentage mark. We were told the class median & they were given A-E for attainment & 1-5 for effort. She usually got a B. she coasted a bit, was told she us bright but she wasn't one of the real high flyers.
So now her new school are talking about levels & I'm lost! She's done done CATS tests this week & i don't kjow the results of these, at her last school she did something similar called INCAS and one year got 129 but last year got 112. they are also giving her levels for each subject.
They've also said she's at a particular level but it could be pushed up to the next level. I'm guessing that's her target for the next year?
Unfortunately I can't make the parent meeting tonight to discuss these things.
