We're not sure what these are! Could they be NFER tests?
The review panel will normally expect to see a record of progress from Y2 to Y5 for each of reading, writing and maths.
At the beginning, year 2, this might be, for example, "3b" "2a" and "3a" for reading, writing and maths.
With the abolition of levels, the later years are usually shown as "not met (HNM)", "has met (EXS)" or "is working at greater depth (GDS)" of age related expectations.
Normally we think they would also like to see predictions of "
111-20" or "
GDS" for the end of Y6.

The new schools head teacher and teacher have agreed to write a recommendation letter.
Good - but it depends what it says, and how it is worded!

We started the new school from this sept. And my daughter had a really hard time settling in and on top there was 11+ exam pressure.
With a score of 118 that should be fine for extenuating circumstances - but it really needs to come from the headteacher.
It won't carry as much weight if it's uncorroborated.

Would passing Berkshire be of any advantage for us in the review?
Doubtful. The standardisation for Slough grammar schools is not the same, so it's difficult to compare scores.
