Trying to find the same out for Bucks. Just giving us a mark when we don't know what it is out of isn't very helpful when trying to ascertain where we went wrong. I have a feeling the dyslexia played a big part but would like this confirmed

Re: Pass mark for each paper
Have a look at the thread on raw scores. You will be able to extrapolate roughly from the scores given.
As a rough guide it appears that each maths question changes the standardised score by 2.5 marks, each English question by just over 3 and reasoning appears to be 1:1. This will be slightly different depending on age, but I'm sure someone will produce a more indepth analysis later (like last year).

Just as an example, my daughter's lowest score was 117 on maths (14/25). I consider this a good score but it equates to only 56%.
