For action: Primary and Junior Schools - 2019 Key Stage 2 Performance Tables

This exercise provides schools with the opportunity to check that the correct pupils have been attributed to them for the purpose of calculating performance measures and if this is not the case, allowing them to submit amendment requests.

The 2019 key stage 2 performance tables checking exercise opened at 9.30am on Monday 2 September and closes at 5.00pm on Friday 13 September 2019 for schools and LAs to check and amend their KS2 pupil cohort details. Any amendments made during this period will be reflected in December performance tables and in the Analyse School Performance release in early 2020, but not in the October data release.

Please note: if a pupil removal request needs supporting documentation, or if you submit a key stage 1 result amendment request, the evidence must be uploaded using the secure website. Documentation submitted by post or by an encrypted email will not be considered and the request will be automatically rejected. If you experience any problems with the uploading of evidence, please contact the schools helpline via email at examshelp@rm.com or by telephone on 0845 3077867
