Year 6 SATs results and end of year reports
Dear Parents and Carers,
I am writing to let you know about a delay to this year's Key Stage 2 (KS2) test results, which affects all schools nationally.
Schools were due to receive results on 7th July 2026. However, Pearson Education Limited, the provider responsible for administering, marking, and returning Key Stage 2 results to schools has informed the Department for Education of a delay affecting the national system used to make results available to schools. Results will now be available to school on 16th July 2026.
We know this is frustrating, but this delay will not negatively impact our planned celebrations of everything your child has achieved at the end of their primary school journey.
Importantly, the delay is not related to the quality of the tests or the accuracy of pupils' results. Test papers have been marked in line with usual processes.
This will not impact your child’s transition to secondary school and no action is required from parents or pupils.
However, what this does mean is that Year 6 end of year reports will be delayed until the last day of term – Friday 17th July. This will allow us to include your child's KS2 test results alongside their teacher assessments and other important information about their achievements this year.
We will share results with you as quickly as possible after we receive them on 16th July.
Thank you for your patience and understanding.
If you have any questions, please contact the school office.
Miss A Siddall
Co-Headteacher
