Reception Baseline Assessment (RBA)
This academic year children in Reception classes across the country will be taking part in a national assessment programme called the Reception Baseline Assessment. This is a short, interactive assessment of your child's early literacy, communication, language and mathematical skills using practical resources your child is used to in school. This is a statutory baseline that every school has to carry out.
We want to stress that this assessment is not about 'labelling' or 'judging' your child. It is simply a starting point to measure the progress school's make with their pupils. Your child can not 'pass' or 'fail' the assessment. Your child will not know that they are undertaking a test of any kind and they can take a break if we feel it is too much for your child to do.
The following leaflet has information for parents about the Reception Baseline Assessment, but if you have any questions then please just speak to Mrs Miller or Mrs Booth.
Meet George! He is our friendly class Giraffe. George likes going home with a different child each week and going on lots of adventures.
