National reading and Numeracy tests

From 7th to 13th May pupils from Years 2-6 in primary schools will be participating in national Numeracy and Reading assessments along with their counterparts in Years 7-9 in comprehensive schools. By now parents will have received a document giving information for parents regarding the tests. A digital copy can be found by clicking THIS LINK.

The tests will take the form of three individual assessments.
1. Reading test
2. Mathematical Procedural test (measures skills in number, measuring and data skills.)
3. Mathematical Reasoning test (measures how well children can use what they know to solve everyday problems.)
