National Standardised Assessments for Scotland: national report 2022 to 2023

Summary of outcomes at a national level on the 'Scottish National Standardised Assessments' (SNSA) and ‘Measaidhean Coitcheann Nàiseanta airson Foghlam tron Ghàidhlig’ (MCNG) (collectively known as NSA) in the 2022 to 2023 academic year.


Appendix 6: Band descriptions from the 2022 to 2023 Individual reports

In the 2022-23 academic year, performance in each curricular area was reported on a single long scale, which is split into 12 capacity bands. The exception to this is writing for which there are only nine bands, since P1 literacy is included on the reading scale. Six of the capacity bands are included in the reports for each stage, with the reported bands being chosen to best reflect the capacity range demonstrated by each stage. P1 covers bands 1 to 6; P4 covers bands 4 to 9, P7 covers bands 6 to 11 and S3 covers bands 7 to 12.

Each capacity band for the National Standardised Assessments for the 2022 to 2023 academic year had an accompanying 'region description'. These descriptions were based on a summary of the skills, knowledge and understanding assessed in the items included in the 2021 to 2022 assessments or trialled in the 2021 to 2022 academic year, which, in turn, were aligned with CfE Benchmarks. The region descriptions for each stage are shown in the band descriptors below.
