Circle Time is a vital component in the EYFS and early Key Stage One.

The test will consist of three parts; a short written task, it has been suggested that stimulus and prompts may be given. The second section will be themed questions, they may be represented in a number of ways and the third section will focus on Spelling. All pupils at the end of key stage 1 will be expected to take all three papers. These will be marked 'in house'. I've put together a 20 page 'mini assessment' covering all three areas. File has been updated and now includes 29 pages. This is the Second Workbook / Mini Assessment Book.
