Did the ht give a reason? Children do not sit the test for a particular subject if they are working below level 3 in that subject. The tests are only suitable for those working at level 3 and above.

There are a few other circumstances which will mean the child doesn't do the test, but they usually involve either severe disability OR a child newly arrived to the country with little or no English. I assume neither of these apply?
