Yr4 VR/NVR what is this?

[pist]

At parents evening, I have just been told that my dc in yr4 has just done tests in vr and nvr and scored 135/140 and 133/140 respectively. Does anybody know what this might be? (CATs?) - and what it means? and if anybody recognises this, would this be a standardised score?

We were not shown the test, so couldn't tell where it was from - although I have heard other parents refer to NFER tests in the past.

If you search on CATs (Cognitive Ability Tests) you will find loads of threads on here. Also look on the NFer site. (PS good scores!).

Thanks Scary Mum,
Did find some info re CATs.
.....so assuming these were CATs - would there not have been a numerical test too (we were only told of vr/nvr)?

Yes I think there would be usually.
