SATS Levels
Hi My Name Is Emma
And I am In Year 5 going into Year 6 And In My Year 5 SATS I recieved In Reading-5c, Writing-5c and in Maths-5b. Would You Say This Is Good For A Headteachers appeal Just Incase I dont Pass. Also When I practiced Verbal for the 11+ I got 97.6% and I think I am Getting Over Confident, can Any1 Help me with this?
By The Way Are there any Other Good 11+ Sites Like This 1?
Thanks Emma x

The Y5 optional tests might be the tests you took - these would be very good levels. An appeal panel would also look at the predictions for Y6 and any other tests you have sat e.g. CATs tests
I would say you would cope well in a GS - but do keep practising those papers so you won't need to think about an appeal!

Over confidence
Dear Emma
Well done for getting such such levels in your year 5 Sats. It is obviously a great confidence boost. But you must remember that when you take a Sats test that the result is measured from that one test - and you might actually have an "off" day". I know this from experience, as a number of my daughter's classmates got level 5c in their year 5 English Sats but only got level 4 in their year 6 ones. The same came apply with the 11plus (in Bucks, anyway, although you do get two shots at it).
But Emma, I would suggest that you thoroughly check your work and grammar when you are doing your exams - it is so easy to lose points by rushing or being careless. As an example - check your spelling of received.

Checking work
Dear Emma
See what I mean about checking work. I should have said "can" instead of "came"!

Head teacher appeals depend on your particular school policy on appeals. {as not all schools get involved.}
Our school made a point of seeing parents and telling them face to face the chances of X passing or borderline or not likely to pass. They also confirmed whether they would support x with a head teacher appeal.
Maybe your parents could ask the school but I think you sound like a very bright individual and wouldn't need the appeal.
Keep up the good work and GOOD LUCK!
