SATs Information
Dear Parents/Carers,
We are working hard in preparation for our Year 6 SATs, which are week commencing 11th May 2026. Please find below the timetable for your child’s tests during that week.
| Monday 11th May 2026
| English grammar, punctuation and spelling (GPS) papers 1 (questions) and 2 (spelling) |
| Tuesday 12th May 2026
| English reading paper |
| Wednesday 13th May 2026
| Mathematics papers 1 (arithmetic) and 2 (reasoning) |
| Thursday 14th May 2026
| 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.
We have consulted the lists of allergies that we have on file for each of your children and will serve food in accordance with this. We wish to inform you that there will be food that may contain nuts. If you have any concern about this, please us know by Friday 1st May 2026.
All of your children show us much more than SATs show us and our message to them and you is:
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
