Monday 13th to To Thursday 16th May
Monday 13 May: English reading test (L3-5) English reading test (L6)
Tuesday 14 May: English grammar, punctuation and spelling test (L3-5) English grammar, punctuation and spelling test (L6)
Wednesday 15 May: Mental mathematics test (L3-5) Mathematics - Test A (L3-5)
Thursday 16 May: Mathematics - Test B (L3-5) Mathematics - Paper 1 (L6) Mathematics - Paper 2 (L6)
If a school is administering both the level 3-5 and level 6 test in a subject the level 3-5 test must be administered first. Usually this will mean level 3-5 in the morning, and level 6 in the afternoon.

Check that her school is not taking the science sampling test.
Lucky that level 6 children tend to enjoy tests!

Also worth noting that some schools administer level 6 papers on the following Monday and Tuesday.

I don't think there is a Science sampling test this year - it's every other year now.

Yes that is correct.
There will not be a Key Stage 2 science sampling test in 2013; a new, biennial (every other year), pupil-level sampling system will be introduced in 2014 (DFE website)

Would you know if this is something one can request? Although i'm not a 'fan' of these level 6 papers in primary DD wants to go ahead and do them (at schools request) getting 5a's so I guess the 6's shall stretch her ability. As someone mentioned earlier she is indeed one of those that quite likes doing tests.pof4 wrote:Also worth noting that some schools administer level 6 papers on the following Monday and Tuesday.
Shouldn't the timetable of these level 6 paper's be the same for everyone taking them?
