writing test - handwriting marks

Post by Alex »

Can anyone tell me what happens to the 3 marks for handwriting if the child cannot write and uses a scribe?

The child gets 2 marks if a scribe is used.

Many thanks wonderwoman - I had had a look at the QCDA guidelines but (typically skim-reading too quickly) had missed the relevant bit.
