The Reception Baseline Assessment
Children in reception will be participating in the reception baseline assessment within the first 6 weeks of them starting. The purpose of the assessment is to provide the starting point for a progress measure that will help parents understand how well schools support their pupils to progress between reception and year 6.
The reception baseline assessment is a short, interactive and practical assessment of your child’s early literacy, communication, language and mathematics skills when they begin school, using materials that most children of your child’s age will be familiar with. You can find an information leaflet below:
