Standardised Testing in Primary Schools
4th December 2012 | News
Standardised testing in primary schools is a key part of the National Literacy and Numeracy Strategy.
These measures included the implementation of standardised testing at 2nd, 4th and 6th class in primary school and the reporting of the information from these tests to parents, boards of management and the Department of Education and Skills. Schools should log on to www.Esinet.ie to input their data on standardised testing. Data on standardised testing should be uploaded by schools no later than 20 December 2012.
Circulars 0056/2011 and 0018/2012 asked schools to implement a range of measures relating to the National Literacy and Numeracy Strategy.
