Primary assessment inquiry

Status: Closed Opened: 15 Sep 2016 Closed: 2 May 2017 1 report

The close link between primary assessment (SATs) and school accountability creates a high stakes system which can negatively impact children’s teaching and learning, says the Education Committee. The Committee calls on the next Government to lower the stakes by changing what is reported in annual performance tables.
