Teacher Slams 'Laughable' Spelling Test Blunder

Around half a million seven-year-olds were due to take the Key Stage 1 grammar, punctuation and spelling test as part of Sats assessments in May. The blunder was only noticed this week when teacher Charlotte Smiles conducted a trial of the exam and a pupil appeared to know all the answers.
