Information from DfE for KS2 National Curriculum Tests 2025:
Overview
At the end of key stage 2 (KS2) pupils take national curriculum tests in mathematics, English reading and English grammar, punctuation and spelling. We use scaled scores to report the outcomes of these tests, to ensure we can make accurate comparisons of performance over time.
What is a scaled score?
Tests are developed to the same specification each year. However, because the questions must be different, the difficulty of tests may vary. This means we need to convert the total number of marks a pupil gets in a test (their ‘raw’ score) into a scaled score, to ensure we can make accurate comparisons of performance over time.
Pupils scoring at least 100 will have met the expected standard on the test. However, given that the difficulty of the tests may vary each year, the number of raw score marks needed to achieve a scaled score of 100 may also change. For example, if the overall difficulty of a test decreases compared to previous years, the raw score required to meet the expected standard will increase. Similarly, if the test is more difficult, the raw score required to meet the expected standard will decrease.
Panels set the raw score required to meet the expected standard. We have used data from trialling to maintain that standard for the tests from 2017 onwards.
Calculating raw scores
The raw scores for each test are calculated by adding the scores from each paper for a subject.
| Test | Number of marks available in the paper | Total number of marks available for the test – highest raw score |
|---|---|---|
| English grammar, punctuation and spelling Paper 1: questions | 50 marks | 70 marks |
| English grammar, punctuation and spelling Paper 2: spelling | 20 marks | |
| English reading | 50 marks | 50 marks |
| Mathematics Paper 1: arithmetic | 40 marks | 110 marks |
| Mathematics Paper 2: reasoning | 35 marks | |
| Mathematics Paper 3: reasoning | 35 marks |
Range of scaled scores and the expected standard
KS2 tests are externally marked and to receive a scaled score, pupils must take each test paper for the subject. For those pupils, schools will receive:
- a raw score
- a scaled score (except where a pupil has too few marks to be awarded the lowest scaled score)
- either ‘NS’ (expected standard not achieved) or ‘AS’ (expected standard achieved)
The range of scaled scores available for each KS2 test is the same as set in 2016 and is intended to stay the same in future years. The lowest scaled score that can be awarded on a KS2 test is 80. The highest scaled score is 120.
Pupils scoring at least a scaled score of 100 will have met the expected standard in the test.
A pupil awarded a scaled score of 99 or less has not met the expected standard in the test.
Pupils need a minimum raw score before they can be awarded the lowest scaled score. Pupils who do not achieve the lowest scaled score on the test have not demonstrated sufficient understanding of the KS2 curriculum in the subject. There are also times when it is not possible to achieve a particular scaled score. This is because of the number of questions in the test, although these scores may be possible on previous or future tests.
