SATs
If you have a child in year 6, at the end of KS2 they will take national curriculum assessments in:

- Mathematics
The tests help measure the attainment of pupils in relation to the standards set out in the national curriculum, and help teachers and parents identify where pupils may need additional support in a certain subject area.
