Hi

I have a DC in year 5 so will sit the dreaded test next year. I am hearing lots of people saying it was too hard to have to sit two tests in one day.

Do you think there is any chance they will learn from this and change it to one test per day next year?

Thanks

If the test did turn out to be too hard (and whether children feel it was too hard is not the issue) there are plenty of other things that could be altered before that. Kent has had four tests (3 multiple choice papers and one piece of writing which is only read in a marginal fail situation) in two mornings for many years now.
