Kent Test 2020
Thu, 15th Oct 2020
Kent Test day for pupils who attend a Kent school (amended from 10th September 2020).
(17th October for all other students).
Children must not attend the assessment if they are in a period of self-isolation or exhibit COVID-19 symptoms on the day of the test.
During lockdown, children have missed around four months of schooling and this will have had an impact on all children's learning, although the impact will be greater on some more than others. KCC will be providing guidance for schools in light of the differing educational opportunities that children will have received over the last few months, and more generally on implementing the approved plans.
The registration window for the Kent Test is now closed. Familiarisation material remains available for all families at www.kent.gov.uk/kenttest
- Venue:
- Primary schools and private junior schools across Kent
- Contact:
- Please contact KCC Children, Young People and Education Directorate kent.admissions@kent.gov.uk

RSWT Wild LIVE! Planning to Fail
Planning White Paper: one of a series of discussions of issues relating to wildlife, the natural world and environment
This month, panellists will be discussing the Government's proposed planning reform. With wildlife continuing to decline, change is desperately needed and the current system is not working. But with the White Paper now published on the planning reforms, The Wildlife Trusts are concerned that we could be about to see a bad situation get worse. Join us as we discuss why.
