Interesting article. Lots of focus on evidence in education until the evidence doesn't actually show what you want it to show. For the additional funding you'd want to see clear evidence but it all seems rather fudged when it comes to MATs.

After SATs: Why I Won’t Be Going Off Timetable
There’s often a familiar pattern that emerges in many primary schools the moment Year 6 SATs are over. Often, in some schools the core curriculum gets packed away, and out come the cross-topic themes, five pound challenges, and sprawling projects that blur every subject into one. I’ve heard it called a “creative release”, “enrichment time”, and even “SATs detox”. But for me, I’ve never enjoyed them or quite seen the logic in pressing pause on structured learning at the exact moment children need it most.
