Rising Stars, Hodder or something else?

[Pud2]

we are looking at getting some reading progress tests to help with assessment as we are finding it hard to just use teacher assessment against the year group expectations. Has anyone used any? Can anyone recommend?

We use Hodder. Rising Stars has a reputation for being very harsh ( although I think the maths ones are being re-written!) We use them to calculate percentile scores which we track across the school.
