It’s time to fundamentally change the high-stakes, high-pressure assessment
system in primary schools and make good mental health the basis for good
learning.

Primary pupils in England now face SATs and other government tests in four out
of seven school years – that’s more formal assessments than in almost any other
country.

But the evidence against the current system is growing. Parents, teachers and
heads are united in calling for change.

Over three-quarters of parents believe there should be no statutory tests in
primary schools and 93% of heads think the government should review the entire
system. Meanwhile, children continue to suffer the negative consequences: 82% of
teachers said pupils were distressed by SATs tests in 2023.

SATs and other government tests don’t help learning and cause unnecessary stress
and pressure.
