Monthly Poll - Key Stage 3 SATs Exams
This page will contain all the information you need to take part in our monthly poll. The topics will include both current issues, such as examinations in the exam season, as well as issues relating to more fundamental concerns, such as teacher assessment and its role in public exams.
Your responses will be used to present media campaigns as well as provide the CIEA with information to answer questions by ministers, or to present arguments to ministers.
Your responses will be anonymous, but will provide important information for the CIEA to use publicly
Here you will find the results of our monthly poll presented in pie-chart format, showing the percentage of people who responded in a particular way to each question. You can then judge how the rest of the assessment community thought about the issues, compared to your own views. This month's poll looked at the scrapping of the Key Stage 3 National Curriculum Tests, commonly known as "Sats".The results can be found below:
Question 1: Do you feel that the Government was right to get rid of Key Stage 3 exams?
| No (%) | Yes (%) |
|---|---|
| 24 | 76 |
Question 2: In the absence of Key Stage 3 exams, do you now feel clear on how you will assess pupils, who would have been sitting these exams?
| No (%) | Yes (%) |
|---|---|
| 46 | 54 |
