AIBU to ask which sats paper my child will be doing and when?

[Rosesandchocolate]

My daughter is in year 2 and will be starting her sats this Friday.

AIBU asking her class teacher which subject she was being tested on And which day?

I didn’t understand her as she spoke so fast so left a note asking her to write down when she’s having her maths arithmetic, reasoning, reading paper 1 , 2 etc especially so I can help my daughter specially for that test the day before.

I just got a call from her teacher saying she’s having a reading paper on Friday, I asked her which one if it’s paper 1 or 2 as they are different so I can help my daughter with some example papers.

Her teacher just said abruptly “we aren’t saying...ok bye”

I am so baffled right now, my friends daughter is at another school and they have told parents which test they are having and what day. I don’t understand why it’s such a secret when I should know what my child is being tested on and when.

What should I do? Thinking of asking the head tomorrow? I don’t want to go above the teacher but it’s a bit ridiculous.

My year two class are mid sats and they are oblivious.

They come with me in groups to a spare room to ‘do a job’ and no song and dance is made whatsoever. If they ask anything about the tests they are told that it’s just so I can check how they’re doing.

They do it then carry on with the rest of their day. No stress, no revision, no prep.

The test forms only part of the range of evidence that informs teacher assessment anyway.

Bollocks are they important for the future! I have taught Secondary for nearly 18 years and never once needed to know how a student performed in KS1 SATs.
Just allow your daughter to enjoy her school day, if you are so worried about the amount of time she has missed, ask the school if they have flagged this up (would be called exam concession with the exam board at my level...no idea for lower primary).
