SATs Information
Dear Parents/Carers,
We are working hard in preparation for our Year 6 SATs, which are week commencing 12th May 2024. Please find below the timetable for your child’s tests during that week.
| Monday 12th May 2024
| English grammar, punctuation and spelling (GPS) papers 1 (questions) and 2 (spelling) |
| Tuesday 13th May 2024
| English reading paper |
| Wednesday 14th May 2024
| Mathematics papers 1 (arithmetic) and 2 (reasoning) |
| Thursday 15th May 2024
| Mathematics paper 3 (reasoning) |
We would like to recommend that you aim for your child to have a fairly restful weekend (no late night sleepovers!) and as much sleep as possible on the Sunday night because the week can be intense.
It is ESSENTIAL that your child comes to school every day this week to complete all their tests.
To help support your child, we would like them to arrive at school Monday-Thursday that week between 8:00am and 8:15am in Pegasus classroom, where we will provide a breakfast free of charge.
Not only does this give everyone the energy they need but it also calms any nerves and ensures that all children are here in plenty of time: some tests need to start BEFORE 9:00am.
All of your children show us much more than SATs show us and our message to them and you is:
‘Just do your best! Remember you have been blessed with skills that SATS don’t test!’
We want them to be as successful as they can be for themselves making them ready for secondary school.
Thank you in advance for your support
The Year 5/6 team
