Details

Special consideration may be awarded if a pupils performance in a key stage 2 (KS2) test has been affected by extremely distressing circumstances.

Approved applications for special consideration do not give the Standards and Testing Agency (STA) sufficient information to change a pupils scaled score itself, but the Department for Education (DfE) will take into account the fact that special consideration has been granted when calculating primary school performance measures.
