Scottish National Standardised Assessment (SNSA)
In August 2017 the Scottish Government introduced the Scottish National Standardised Assessments (SNSA) as part of the National Improvement Framework.
The SNSA will be undertaken by all children in P1, P4, P7 and S3 and assess aspects of reading, writing and numeracy. As set out in the national guidance the main purpose of the assessments is to provide information for teachers on how well children are doing in literacy and numeracy and to help guide learning and teaching.
All P1, P4, P7 and S3 pupils will take the assessments during the six weeks directly following the school holidays in April.
 Further information for parents is available on the SNSA website through the link below:
