What does this level mean

[Shazy123]

My daughter was given a level 5plus (she's 11yrs old) what does this mean?

[TheWintersTale]

5a, I'd assume.

[phlebas]

yes 5a - dd's school uses -/+ instead of c/a - so 5- is 5c and 5+ is 5a

[bruffin]

I would say probably a 5c ie just working at above level 5a would be a 6-

[bruffin]

meant to say
6- is not quite working at a level 6 yet.

It means bugger all in most subjects. Totally made up a lot of the time.
