Townfield Primary School

The reason the level 3 results in Key Stage 1 seem low is because to gain a level 3, a child must be working well within a 3b, which is the expected average result at the end of Year 4. We, therefore, gave the children, who were within level 3, Year 4 work to see if they could understand it. If they managed it well, the child was awarded a level 3, if not on the SAT results we gave level 2a but noted a 3c on our school tracking sheet.
