Re: levels in primary
Yes, these levels are fine. You are supposed to progress 3 sub levels in 2 years although we seem to be moving towards 2 sub levels a year.
So your child is on target to get level 5's at the end of year 6.

Re: levels in primary
Your daughter has done really well. 4b is the level an average child reaches by the end of year 6. If she make 2 sub levels of progress next year she will achive level 5 in 2 areas which is what you would expect a bright child to achieve by the end of year 6. Just be careful if this is a sat result she may have just scored this result in one test and not be working at this level generally.

Re: levels in primary
In year five my dd scored level 5 in english= comprehension and writing sats tests. However her teacher explained that even though she had done brilliantly she was not working consistantly at this level - meaning that somedays she would produce a level 5 essay but on another she would only produce one marked at level 4b. When they are working at a particularly level on a daily basis the teacher will say "your child is a secure level 5"Tulip wrote:Hi hdq2907

I think this is what hdq2907 meant
Re: levels in primary
A level 4b should indicate working securely within level 4 - not just a flash in the pan. Which is very good for year 4.
