I'm a former class teacher. My resources were originally made for use in my class, but sometimes I get asked to develop stuff for other people. I'm happy to make spreadsheets in particular!

Here are the pdfs of the sample grammar, punctuation and spelling sample test provided by the government for the end of Key Stage 2 assessment. I've added an excel spreadsheet to help analyse outcomes of the test and areas where children do well or need additional input. No levelling information is currently available for these tests and so they are of limited use, however I feel experiencing this test before the actual one of vital for both children and adults! The .xls version may not display the rankings as clearly as the .xlsx version.
Here is a follow up to my spreadsheets to analyse the sample grammar, punctuation and spelling sample test.
I've altered the spreadsheet to match the 2013 Year 6 paper to help analyse outcomes of the test and areas where children do well or need additional input.
The spreadsheet will automatically level children for you, and a Pi Chart is included to show the levels reached, the number of children achieving that level and the percentage of the group reaching that level.
The .xls version may not display the rankings as clearly as the .xlsx version.
