We recommend the tests to other schools. We wouldn’t do so if we didn’t believe they’d been instrumental to our success.

Tennyson Road Primary School

St Margaret's Academy

A consistent assessment which we can use across the school and which closely mirrors the structure, format and content of the national tests.
