N4/N5 Assessment Calendar
Our new N4/N5 assessment calendar is designed to support both pupils and parents with their planning and organisation throughout S3 and S4. Every subject is included in the calendar along with approximate timings for all SQA National Unit Assessments, Assignments and Added Value Units. It does not include informal class testing that takes place on a regular basis.
Please note the following when using this calendar;
- The timings are only an approximate guide for learners and should be viewed as such. Pupils should establish exact dates with teachers in the run up to any assessments and use their log books accordingly.
- The bulk of assessments will be found within the S4 calendar section. This is to allow sufficient depth of learning to take place as well as allowing as long as possible to develop the range of skills required in individual subjects.
We hope that you find this calendar useful in supporting your child to establish effective planning and organisation strategies throughout this stage of their learning.
