Key Stage Two Numeracy SATs

[crunchiesmum]

For Year 6 teachers

I'm teaching year 6 for the first time this year, and doing past SATs tests as revision. Just did an old numeracy paper (1999). Is it normal for the Paper B marks to be a good bit lower thn Paper A marks? Paper A came out higher than expected and Paper B lower. Combined they put all the children about where I think they are from teacher assessment. Having a panic that they've all gone back about 5 marks in the fortnight between tests. It was more significant with the level 4 children than the level 5s. Please stop me worying.
