Despite this week’s adverse media coverage of the Year 6 SATs tests, our Year 6 children have ‘kept their cool’ and finished their last SATs test yesterday. As I mentioned last week, I am incredibly proud of their responsible learning attitudes, both in the run-up to the tests, and during the course of this week.

I am very much looking forward to spending some time with the Year 6 children and parents this afternoon as they unwind at ‘The end of SATs picnic’. This is a lovely event which is always popular with children and parents alike and is a great way for the children (and parent!) to ‘let off steam’.
