BBC News – Boycott threatens Sats test chaos

BBC News – Boycott threatens Sats test chaos

Well done to all those teachers who have got the balls to stand up to  one of the most pointless testing regimes invented.

The tests add no value to the children being tested, they are only done for the benefit of the school and so that the govt can produce its league tables. 10 and 11 years olds are getting stressed out about SATS, teachers ramming home the point that they need to revise , need to learn more, get better results , your future rests on it.

More effort should be spent in preparing Year 6 pupils for the transition needed and the change in learning styles that occur at Secondary school.

Can you tell that i am a parent of a Year 6!
