All test materials, including unused test papers, must be stored securely until Monday 3 June. Paper 1: arithmetic The following information explains how to administer the key stage 1 mathematics Paper 1: arithmetic. If you have any questions, you should check with your headteacher or key stage 1 test co-ordinator before you administer the test. Please follow these instructions correctly to ensure that the test is properly administered. Failure to administer the test correctly could result in a maladministration investigation. Format • Paper 1: arithmetic consists of a single test paper. • It is expected that Paper 1 will take approximately 20 minutes to complete, but it is not strictly timed. • It is at your discretion to choose when, or if, a pupil requires a break during the test or whether to stop the test early. Equipment Each pupil will need the equipment specied below: • a pencil or a blue/black pen • a ruler • a rubber (optional). If rubbers are not provided, tell pupils that they should cross out any answers they wish to change. Pupils are not allowed: • calculators • number apparatus e.g. base ten materials, number squares, etc. Assistance • You must ensure that nothing you say or do during a test could be interpreted as giving pupils an advantage, e.g. indicating that an answer is correct or incorrect, or suggesting the pupil looks at an answer again. • If a pupil requests it, a question may be read to the pupil on a one-to-one basis. However, you can only read numbers and not mathematical symbols. This is to ensure that pupils are not given an unfair advantage by having the function inadvertently explained by reading its name. • There is no specic hearing impairment guidance for this test, but be careful when signing numbers and mathematical signs. You must ensure you do not convey information that would give pupils an advantage. • Guidance for administering the test to pupils with a visual impairment is contained in the relevant modied test pack. • The examples below illustrate how to deal with some common queries. Q. What does this sign here mean? A. I can’t tell you, but think hard and try to remember. We can talk about it after the test. Q. Does this mean ‘take away’? A. I can’t tell you, but think hard and try to remember. We can talk about it after the test. Q. What does ‘of ’ mean? (i.e. if the pupil’s query asks about an everyday word that has a mathematical meaning within the question, e.g. ‘What is half of 8?’) A. I can’t tell you, but think hard and try to remember. We can talk about it after the test. Before the test begins • Review the list of pupils with any particular individual needs, e.g. pupils who may need support from a scribe or a transcript made at the end of the test.

What to do at the start of the test • Check that seating is appropriately spaced and that no pupil can see another pupil’s test paper. • Check that pupils don’t have mobile phones or other disruptive items. • Check that pupils don’t have any materials or equipment that may give them extra help. • Ensure that each pupil has a copy of mathematics Paper 1: arithmetic. How to introduce the test • It is important to brief pupils fully at the start of each test. Use these instructions to introduce Paper 1: arithmetic. • The wording of these instructions can be adapted, provided the meaning is retained. This is the mathematics test Paper 1: arithmetic. You should have a test booklet in front of you. This test will take around 20 minutes. Write your name on the front of your test booklet. Open the test booklet at page 3. We’ll do one practice question together and then you’ll need to complete the rest of the test by yourself. • Find the practice question on page 3. Read the practice question. The practice question says: Two plus ve equals… Write your answer in the box. • Give pupils the opportunity to answer the question in their booklet. If any pupil is not sure what to do, explain what they need to do to answer the question. Check that all pupils understand what they need to do before continuing. • Tell the pupils: In a moment, you will complete the rest of the questions on your own. You should try to answer all of the questions. If you can’t answer a question, move on to the next one and come back to that question later on if you have time. There is space on the test paper if you need to do any working out. There are two dierent types of working out space for you to use. Sometimes there is a blank space and other times there is a grid to show your working. You should use these spaces for any written working that might help you answer the question. If you want to change an answer, you should rub it out or put a line through the answer that you don’t want to be marked. You should put your nal answer for each question in the answer box on the test booklet. Your answers should be numbers, not number sentences. For example, for the practice question, your answer should be 7, not 3 add 4 Remember to check your work carefully. If you have any questions during the test, you should put your hand up and wait for me/someone to come over to you. Remember that I/we can’t help you to answer any of the test questions. You need to work on your own. You need to think of your own answers and you mustn’t talk about them with anyone else. Do you have any questions? Turn to page 4 and nd question 1 Now start the test.

How to deal with issues during the testIt is impossible to plan for every scenario. Whatever action you take, pupil safety must always be your rst consideration. In the following circumstances, you will need to stop the test either for an individual pupil or for the whole cohort: • test papers are incorrectly collated or the print is illegible • an incorrect test has been administered • a re alarm goes o • a pupil is unwell • a pupil needs to leave the room • a pupil is caught cheating. If you need to stop the test: • make a note of the time • make sure pupils are kept under test conditions and that they are supervised • if pupils have to leave the room, ensure they don’t talk about the test • speak to your test co-ordinator or a senior member of sta for advice on what to do next • consider contacting the national curriculum assessments helpline on 0300 303 3013 for further advice. You should brief your headteacher on how the incident was dealt with, once the test is over. What to do at the end of the test • Follow your school’s procedure for collecting and storing the pupils’ test scripts. • If any test papers from the opened pack are unused, they must be stored securely and may be used for any subsequent administration of the test at your school. • All test materials, including any unused test papers, must be stored securely until Monday 3 June. • If you need to make a transcript of a test script, complete it with the individual pupil at the end of the test, under test conditions. Particular care should be taken to ensure accurate transcriptions are made and the pupil’s answers are not corrected or amended. Marking the tests • Use the key stage 1 test mark schemes to mark the test, following both the general guidance and any specic guidance for each question. 2019 key stage 1 mathematics Administering Paper 1: arithmetic Print version product code: STA/19/8224/p ISBN: 978-1-78957-127-1 Electronic version product code: STA/19/8224/e ISBN: 978-1-78957-139-4 For more copies Additional printed copies of this booklet are not available.
