Reception Baseline Assessment

Your child will participate in the statutory reception baseline assessment (RBA) within the first 6 weeks of starting reception. The purpose of the assessment is to provide the starting point for a progress measure that will help parents understand how well schools support their pupils to progress between reception and year 6.

The RBA is an age-appropriate assessment, made up of 2 components assessing:

  • Early mathematics
  • Early literacy, communication and language
