Ds1 is KS1, Y2, will get his SATS results on Monday. And I'm dreading the whole 'how did he do?'. It's starting on MN - take a look down the education threads - and I can't bear it - the whole idea of 'grading' 6 and 7 year olds is crazy. How can you compare, for example, a girl born on September 1st with a boy on August 31st? And those scores go on their records, and stay with them throughout their school career.
It is so wrong. And I don't think a number should influence my opinion of how well ds1 is doing. I know he's doing fine. And I really don't care if he gets a 2b or a 2a or a 3 or whatever in anything.
Rant over.
