Anyone know about 'Yellis' testing ?

[katiestar]

Our Y10 have done them this week.It sounds as though it might have been a bit like CATS ? Does anyone know anything about them ?I'd never even heard of them before

Our school does them (& MidYis) for the younger ones. They are just assesment tests from which they can make GCSE & A level predictions & are generally used for target setting (either for the cohort or individuals). The predictions are quite accurate for a cohort (so good for judging teacher performances against), but less so for individuals (less good for individual target setting). Some schools will share the results others don't.
