It is statutory for all schools from September 2021 The RBA will provide an opportunity for your child to have valuable one-to-one tome with their teacher at an early stage, so that the teacher can get to know your child better. It will provide a helpful snapshot of your child so that they can be supported in the most appropriate way. You do not need to do anything to prepare your child for the assessment. Your child is unlikely to even know that they are doing an assessment when they are completing tasks and activities. For more information the full booklet for parents is below.
