Key Stage Data Collections Guidance Notes
15 May 2023
2023 editions are now available to download.
Guidance notes regarding the completion and submission of the 2023 statutory EYFSP, Phonics, KS1 and KS2 Teacher Assessments are now available to download from Cantium.
If you have a support contract they can be found on Cantium Service Now
If you do not use ESS (Capita) SIMS, please contact your supplier for details on how you can enter the statutory pupil level data for each key stage.
Guidance on the eligible outcomes for each key stage and information on how to return your EYFS, Phonics and KS1 files to Management Information can be found on the Key Stage Data Collections Kelsi page.
Guidance on how to submit for KS2 will be available on the same page as soon as the Primary Assessment Gateway opens for submissions.
We have also produced an overview document for schools who use ESS SIMS but do not have a support contract with Cantium together with brief “export and submit” guidance for schools using Arbor, Bromcom and Pupil Asset which we hope will assist schools who use these systems. These can also be found on the Kelsi page listed above.
Last Submission Dates:
- EYFSP - Friday 30 June 2023
- Phonics - Tuesday 27 June 2023***
- KS1 TA - Tuesday 27 June 2023
- KS2 TA - Friday 30 June 2023**
** As in previous years Management Information will not be collecting, cleansing or forwarding to the Primary Assessment Gateway any KS2 Teacher Assessment outcomes in 2023. Instead, all schools will have to submit their own data to the Primary Assessment Gateway and amend any errors by Friday 30 June.
*** Please ensure that you only return Phonics scores for all Year 1 pupils and those Year 2 pupils who needed to retake the test, not all Year 2 pupils.
It is our intention to provide schools with a pupil level report of the data they have submitted (EYFSP, Phonics and KS1 only) before the final DfE deadlines. This is to ensure that there are no data entry errors that will be carried forward into your School Summary Reports and ASP.
Once we have processed your data, a pupil level file will be transferred to you through Perspective Lite.
We will email you at the same time to let you know the file has been uploaded.
