National Curriculum

Tests and assessments

Year 1 phonics screening check

The check will take place in June when your child will read 40 words out loud to a teacher. You’ll find out how your child did, and their teacher will assess whether he or she needs extra help with reading.

Key Stage 1

Key Stage 1 tests cover:

  • English reading
  • English spelling, punctuation and grammar (SPAG)
  • Maths (Arithmetic and Reasoning)

The tests are taken when the school chooses. You’ll get the results but they’re only used to help the teacher assess your child’s work.

Key Stage 2

Key Stage 2 tests cover:

  • English reading
  • English grammar, punctuation and spelling
  • Maths (Arithmetic and Reasoning)
  • science (only schools selected to participate in a national sample)

The tests are taken on set days in mid-May and last under 5.5 hours. You’ll get the results of these tests usually in July.
