Help interpreting CAT4 score

[dandelionsticks]

I'd appreciate any help on interpreting my child's CAT4 scores. Our school don't like to share them but will (reluctantly) provide them if we actively ask for them. This year I did and I was sent this but there are no numbers (!) so I have no idea what they've actually scored. I assume the yellow bit is the national average so the scores are above average but that's all I can work out. This is my first time asking for the CAT4 report so I'm not sure if this is how it's usually presented. I was expecting actual numbers and I don't find this bar chart very helpful. I am trying to get guidance from the school but they seem reluctant to be more specific and apparently this is the report format. Until then, if anyone has any helpful guidance, I'd really appreciate it.

To clarify, the reason for the school not liking to share CAT4 scores is that they say parents get too hung up on them.

Why do you need it? As you say you can't understand it?

@RedHelenB I understand the numbers. It will be helpful to have the numbers so we can realistically decide which schools to apply for at 11+.

I'm saying that the bar chart doesn't have any numbers indicated on it. So I know my child scored above 100 but I have no idea if it's in the range of 100-115 or 120+ for example.

I’d guess

125
136
115
117

Thanks @CanOfGerms . It's odd they just gave me this bar chart as clear numbers would be more helpful surely! The school don't like to share as they say parents get too caught up on numbers but the reality is that most of the 11+ schools (around here) do openly advise what minimum CAT score candidates need to be a competitive applicant. I'll keep chasing with our school as they must surely have the numbers on record!

It’s the normal parent report from GL, chart is easier to interpret. Numbers are for professionals usually with this.

I looked at the other prediction and think its about ballpark right.

I think the final section is the top 3 statines from 112-141. Then it's just eyeballing what looks about right.

My guesses are 124 136 119 121, average 125

I'm a little higher on the last 2 as id generally estimate they are around 1/3 of the way across the final section.

@Jonny234 we finally got the data and you were estimation was near spot on. 124 was 123 and 119 was 120. Otherwise, you guessed everything correctly! It's really helpful for us to have these numbers as we are told to use them as guidance for what schools to shoot for.
