KS2 SATs Information 2023
An additional bank holiday in honour of the Coronation of His Majesty King Charles III will take place on Monday 8 May 2023. As this date had previously been announced as the first day of the 2023 key stage 2 (KS2) test week in England, a change to the KS2 test schedule next year will be necessary. Ministers have considered the situation carefully and have decided that KS2 tests will take place in the same week with tests following the usual order but each taking place one day later than originally planned.
As such, the new schedule will be:
Tuesday 9 May: English grammar, punctuation and spelling (GPS) papers 1 (questions) and 2 (spelling)
Wednesday 10 May: English reading paper
Thursday 11 May: mathematics papers 1 (arithmetic) and 2 (reasoning)
Friday 12 May: mathematics paper 3 (reasoning)
Please ensure that there is no reason (holidays, appointments etc) for your child to be absent that week. (Standards and Testing Agency, 2022)
Please see below the information from our Parent Information evening in November 2023.
