The assessment formats vary by year: Nursery/Foundation Stage use a short interactive assessment and play-based observation; Year 1 has a written English and Mathematics assessment with a play-based observation; Years 2–10 use a progression-based English and Mathematics assessment, GL CAT4, an English written assessment, and a Phase Leader interactive meeting.
