The range of scaled scores available for each KS 2 test are as follows:

80 is the lowest scaled score that can be awarded, 120 is the highest scaled score.

A pupil awarded a scaled score of 100 or more has met the expected standard in each test. A pupil awarded a scaled score of 99 or less, has not met the expected standard in the test. As writing is teacher assessed, there are no scaled score equivalents and are reported as 'working towards the expected standard' 'at the expected standard', or 'working at greater depth'.

Children will be given their results after they are released in early July.
