managers fear that their objectives can be neglected because of what some say is "terrible" Sats marks
Newslast week to a government report has recommended to write tests for the demolition of 11 years should have been music to the ears of teachers, some with a lot of time campaigning against the tests for children in elementary school. But before he could savor the moment, many problems were involved in the marking of the tests this year, the national program, known as Sat administrators and staff are having a busy week of using Edexcel preparation, the review board, the term Friday.
After receiving an unprecedented number of calls from the administration, the National Association of Head Teachers conducted a survey among its members. At 24 hours, 720 of 954 respondents said they had problems. Over 30% said that the difficulties were "moderate" 28% "severe" and 13% "scandalous", 93% reported problems with the writing of the test. The test, followed by students in six years in May, is not limited to checking the accuracy, the child must show that you can write in a variety of genres and for different audiences
But bosses say the markers this year have put too much emphasis on writing and spelling and not enough on the composition, sentence structure and use of punctuation.
Tony Draper, Director of Water Hall Primary in Milton Keynes (NAHT national executive and member), says that the mark is "absolutely outrageous".
Nine pupils should reach level 4 (the level expected of most students who complete primary school) were classified at level 3. Two students, considered by the teachers have a standard level 5 were classified as Level 4.
One of the articles (see this page), which Draper described as showing "a real touch and imagination of a child under 10 years", won only 13 out of 31 marks (level 3) by an external consultant, with particularly low scores for writing and "the text structure and organization." Draper believes that it should have been awarded with 20, an opinion verified by an assessment of local consultants, which would mean an overall score of level 4. "It's ridiculous, especially the decision to writing, because it is perfectly readable and sitting on the lines," he said. "I can not help thinking that the reviewer did not like that he had crossed, but we teach our children to change their work on the fly, and it is certainly a good practice. "
And this is not the only thing that Draper is not impressed. In five cases, the number of brands have been added incorrectly by the score - in one case resulting in a difference of five points out of possible 30
Draper is sending 11 of 31 documents to be examined again. It's not cheap, schools have to pay £ 9 for script re-marked and only get their money back if your appeal is successful
Moremain Tickford Park Milton Keynes, Ann Tobia is also puzzled. She plans to return 15 of 41 scripts, after only 23 of the 51 students achieved level 4 degrees (the school had predicted 43). She said: "My teachers are experienced markers and precise, so in previous years, their predictions were in scripts this year look like they have seen a child with a load of deletions and which has obviously changed . his mind several times. "
Some, like Draper, say the reviewers seem to be judgments based on the first paragraphs. "We had a brilliant opening paragraph was generally not very good, with a great brand. Another who did not start too well, but is much improved, has a poor rating. " It's not just students who are affected. Under the government's objectives for primary schools, 60% of year 11 years is expected that the results of level 4 on the SAT. If these marks are preserved, some schools might be hard to achieve their goals. "The directors may consider whether they have a job next year," said Draper. Some have already asked for an explanation.
