Next up on The Exam Man we have Daniel Walton - Smith, to get the lowdown on exams in primary schools.

The Deputy Headteacher of a 2-form primary school on the Wirral- Prenton Primary- Dan also sits on The Standards and Testing Agency (STA) Expert Panelist for the Department for Education. As part of his DfE role Dan works on the Key Stage1 reading panel, where he analyses potential future SATs tests.

Dan's passion for primary education and helping young children to reach their potential is truly infectious. Our conversation is invaluable for exams teams and secondary teachers to understand how our youngest children are assessed, and how that impacts their transition to the the rest of their education. However, if you have a primary aged child in your life, Dan also gives great insight into testing across the primary phase. Learn what to expect, when, and how you can support your child and their school. Happy listening!
