Calculating with measurements, including calculating perimeter and area
Converting measurements (e.g. from centimetres to metres)

Assessment and progress
Children continue to be assessed informally throughout the junior years and this helps to inform
their teachers’ planning so that they can support each child in the class. There will be ongoing
teacher assessments of maths, reading, writing and science and some schools use end of year
practice tests in these areas to help check on your child’s progress.
It’s very common for children assess or mark each other’s work as well as their own as this can
be a highly effective form of learning. Either way you will be kept informed about your child’s
progress (through record books and parents' evenings) and if your child is finding maths tricky
then extra support is usually provided by the teacher or specialist teacher, in consultation with
you. This is often through small group work and may be in or outside of the classroom. Your
support and encouragement is hugely important but, as ever, if you’re worried then do talk to your
child’s teacher.
