The Standards and Testing Agency set the tests to assess children in education from early years to the end of key stage 2.
These Tests are:
- Key stage 1 and key stage 2 tests - commonly referred to as SATs
- Phonics screening check
- Science sampling tests
- Multiplication times table check
Schools must keep these periods free for administering the national curriculum assessments at key stages 1 and 2.
Key stage 2 tests must be taken on the scheduled days.
