## Discuss your preparation plan

Tell us about your Year 6 SATs goals. We’ll confirm tutor availability, fees and suitable demo options.

Know what you’re preparing for

## Your test, in context.

### Who it’s for

Year 6 pupils in England preparing for Key Stage 2 national curriculum tests.

### What to expect

English reading, grammar, punctuation and spelling, and mathematics tests. These school assessments are different from the US SAT admission test.

### Before you plan

Ask the school about the assessment arrangements and access support. Writing is assessed separately through teacher assessment; a tutoring worksheet is not a statutory test.

Understanding before speed

## The skills to focus on.

01

### Reading comprehension

Retrieve details, explain vocabulary in context and support an inference with evidence from the passage.

02

### Grammar, punctuation and spelling

Apply sentence rules accurately, then explain a correction rather than guessing from how it sounds.

03

### Arithmetic and reasoning

Develop calculation fluency and show how fractions, measurement and number relationships apply in word problems.

Free learning resources

## Practise a skill. Understand your next step.

Choose a topic that fits your current level. These short samples support the skills discussed above; they are not a complete Year 6 SATs mock test.

Understand it. Try it. Review it.

## Put your fractions, decimals and proportion learning into practice.

Worked example · Fractions, decimals and proportion

### A jacket costs $80 before a 25% discount. What is the sale price?

1. 25% is one quarter.
2. One quarter of $80 is $20.
3. $80 - $20 = $60.

Common mistakes to check

- Adding denominators when adding fractions
- Reporting the discount instead of the sale price

A focused way forward

## Build a study routine around the test.

Begin with an untimed question to find the specific difficulty. Alternate arithmetic and reasoning, revisit misunderstood vocabulary, then use official released materials to become familiar with instructions. Keep practice short enough to discuss mistakes without rushing.

Discuss your next step

1. 01

### Understand the starting point

Use the official requirements and your attempted work to identify the next skill.
2. 02

### Practise with a purpose

Review a method, attempt a new task and explain the reasoning in your own words.
3. 03

### Review and adjust

Check repeated mistakes and revisit the skill before adding more timed practice.
