KS2 Teacher Assessments Data Collection 2018

Important early information for schools about the return of their KS2 teacher assessments.

Due to changes surrounding moderation dates that have been set out by the DfE, Management Information will not be able to collect, cleanse and forward to NCA Tools any KS2 Teacher Assessment outcomes in 2018.

Instead, all schools will have to submit their own data to NCA Tools and amend any errors by Thursday 28 June.

All schools should already have a nominated super-user of NCA Tools and can have up to 4 additional nominated users. NCA Tools is the website where schools download their pupil level KS2 Test results every July.

If the super-user has left or has forgotten their log in details you need to contact the National Curriculum Assessments helpline by emailing assessments@education.gov.uk or by calling 0300 303 3013.

A guide to managing access and troubleshooting of NCA Tools can be found here

Management Information will still offer support to schools during the data collection window and we will still write an information notice on how to enter your KS2 TA outcomes into SIMS and how to produce the XML file you need to submit to NCA Tools. The information notice should be available on Kelsi in May on our Key Stage Data Collections page.

All other assessments (EYFSP, Phonics, KS1) will still be returned to Management Information for processing, cleansing and forwarding to the DfE as this remains a statutory LA function. Guidance for these will also be available on Kelsi in May.
