Y6 Sats results - are they out yet?

[Hottoday]

Wondering if schools will have received them yet?

Sorry Contrary, I missed that you said Reading. I know Reading is tough, but really?

Sorry can't make it a hyperlink but if you get a mark it will show you the level.

We haven't got ours back as far as I'm aware but can you appeal the result? The school made a huge error for DD's exam and I need any score to be appealed if possible.

Depends what county contrary is in

Whattodo - I don't know, it's purely anecdotal, but apparently it is what the children in my son's class were told!

Wonder if they were told 'one in the county' and it got translated.

*Wheresthe" - yes, one in the county, not the country. That would be plain daft.

Emo - it's not the biggest of counties, but it's not tiny either!

I've been telling my DD not to invest too much emotionally in the Level 6 Reading test. I think she will probably get the math and be very happy with that. Fingers crossed. We hear this Friday.

DD is spitting feathers about the Reading test. Woe betide them if she ever meets the people who set the tests. Still, I'm happier if she is cross with them then if she turns her disappointment on herself.

Two children in our Local Authority got L6 in reading. I'm looking at the 'Comparative Report' provided with DSs results and it states 0% got level 6 reading nationally. Obviously it's been rounded down but it can't be many children.

Level 6 % nationally:

SPaG 4%
Reading 0%
Maths 9%

The level 6 maths papers were both out of 25 and if you got 32 or more you got a level 6.

So-you need a 32 across both papers to get a 6 in maths?

Doh...

According to hillbilly's link the L6 Maths threshold has risen by 2 marks to 34 this year.

I am proud of him, but I am even prouder that he got 5s in English (he was a 3b at

the end of year 4 :)))

Oh my god, DS got level 6 in SP&G, writing and maths, got a high 5 in Reading. I'm a blubbering wreck!!!

mrz The link to the TES article, about problems with the marking, no longer works. For some reason the page has moved to here

Seeking clarification from Mrz- a fellow dweller in God's allotment.
If a DC achieves a L5 in a L3-5 paper and a pass in the L6 paper, does the sub-level of the L3-5 determine whether a L6 is given to the DC?

No, they would be awarded the 6 whatever the quality of the 5!

We got 5 children each with level 6s in Maths and SPAG, 3 children moderated as level 6 writers by the LEA yet no level 6 readers. But there's nothing wrong with the reading test, you know, oh no.

Cheers, Feenie!

So glad that this conversation can't happen next year.

Same conversation just different units of measure next year

I 'kind of' agree, bigbuttons, in one sense.
Then, from another perspective, the Proggymat household are contemplating whether we should display a few 'Pit banners' outside our house, as we have 3 L6 passes- without a 'whiff' of the label 'talented and gifted'.

I know, it makes me sad for the children though.
