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 slightly each year. 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 pupil 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 with 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.

The lowest scaled score that can be awarded on a KS2 test is 80. The highest scaled score is 120.

Pupils scoring at least 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.

Whilst the scaled score equating to the ‘Greater Depth’ standard for 2024 is yet to be released, it is generally recognised that a scaled score of 110 or above equates to achievement of the Greater Depth standard.
