Attainment and Progress Data

Key stage 2 test results are converted into ‘scaled scores’ with a score of 100 being the expected standard. Any score below 100 means the pupil is working ‘towards the expected standard’, and any score above 110 means the pupil is working ‘above the expected standard’.
