Year 6 sats; how many maths questions corect for each level?

[anxiousma]

Does anyone know how many questions right a child would have to get to get a level 3,4 or 5 in maths?

Thanks

The grade boundaries are published at the same time as the results so we don't know yet! Last year a N ( ie below level 2 ) was 0-14, level 2 was 15-17, level 3 was 18-45, level 3 was 46-78 and level 5 was 79 and above. (These are marks , not questions as some questions score 2 marks and some only 1)

I don't think the thresholds haven't been published yet for this years tests

What spaniel said.
And level 5 hovers between 78 and 79. Alters from year to year.

I could do with it being just a LITTLE bit lower this year, I have some very borderline children and every mark counts!

Agree - usually 80+ is a guaranteed level 5.

Spanieleyes - I thought you had loads at Level 6?

I do, but I also have several high level 4's who might possibly get a level 5 with a fair wind!
( Loads is a slight exaggeration, I have 12 year 6's this year, 4 managed a level 6 on the optional paper and are virtually guaranteed a level 5 on the main paper ( unless they missed a couple of pages out!) three more are high level 4's-my fair wind group!, 2 are secure level 4's and 2 are level 3's ( again a low pass mark might bump them up but I doubt it) with my SEN boy a level 2

I had 98% level 4, 50+% level 5 last year. The previous record was 76% with an average of the low seventies. Sadly there's only one way this year's results can go...

Utterly meaningless tests, yet they'll be a lot of explaining.

As every child in my year group counts as 8%, just a couple who struggle pull the results down enormously. Having said that, ALL my children have made 2 levels progress since KS1 and several have made 3 so value added will be good!
