What’s a good CAT4 Year 5 score?

A Year 5 child scoring 126 or above on their CAT4 school assessment is performing in the top 4% of Year 5 children. This indicates that their performance is significantly above average compared to their fellow Year 5 pupils taking the CAT 4.

Since it is a standardised school assessment, the average CAT 4 score is always 100.

Our recommended routes for establishing specific Year 5 CAT4 benchmarks

Always bear in mind the following two key CAT4 scoring issues for Year 5:

1. ‘Good CAT4 result’ varies from one independent school admissions process  to another. So, what? Well, it is essential for any child’s CAT4 score to be seen in the context of the specific private school’s Year 5 standards. Or the gifted child programme’s CAT 4 entry requirements if that is how the CAT4 is being used for Year 5.
2. We recommend checking your child’s CAT4 Year 5 entrance requirements at the school, or CAT4 admissions person, responsible for those CAT4 pass requirements your child is aiming for.
