National Curriculum Tests
Standard Achievement Tests (SATs) are taken every year by all students in state schools to assess their progress in the National Curriculum.
British School of Alicante students take Key Stage 2 SATs at the end of Year 6 and Key Stage 3 SATs at the end of Year 9.
The papers are sent to England for marking. The target level for children at the end of Year 6 is Level 4, and for those at the end of Year 9 is Level 5 or 6. Students normally take IGCSE at the end of Year 11, although some subjects may be taken at the end of Year 10.
