Testing Times
If there is one thing that is constant in education in Wales, it is that things are always
changing!
In September, the Welsh Government are introducing new Literacy and Numeracy
Frameworks that all schools have to follow for children from Nursery to Year 9 in
secondary school.
As well as the new frameworks, the government has introduced a new series of tests that
are to be sat each year by all children from Year 2 to Year 9, beginning this year.
The main purpose of the tests is to help inform the school and parents of exactly where
each child is with respect to the new frameworks and we will include your child’s results in
their annual report nearer the end of term.
This year’s tests are to be sat between May 7th
and May 22nd
with each child completing a
numeracy test and a reading test. The guidance we have received is that these should be
carried out in conditions similar to everyday classroom practice and you can rest assured
that, while encouraging all pupils to do their best, we will minimise any stresses such
testing can cause.
