What Are SATs?

SATs (Standard Assessment Tests) are national exams in English primary schools to track your child’s academic progress.

KS1 SATs: Optional for Year 2 (ages 6–7)

KS2 SATs: Mandatory for Year 6 (ages 10–11)

They help teachers, parents, and schools understand how children are performing against national standards.

KS1 SATs (Year 2)
  • Subjects tested formally: Reading, Maths

  • Teacher assessments: Writing, Speaking, Science (assessed over the year)

  • Vibe: Gentle, supportive, not high-stakes

KS2 SATs (Year 6)
  • Subjects tested:

    • English Reading

    • SPaG (Spelling, Punctuation, Grammar)

    • Maths (1 arithmetic paper + 2 reasoning papers)

  • Teacher assessments: Writing, Speaking, Science

  • Vibe: More formal, but still supportive; no child “fails” in a life-altering way

Why SATs Exist
  • Identify learning gaps and provide extra support

  • Help parents understand progress

  • Guide secondary school placements

  • Monitor school performance and share best practices

SATs Jargon Explained
  • SPaG: Spelling, punctuation, grammar

  • National Standard: Expected level (score of 100)

  • Scaled Score: Raw score converted for fair comparison

  • Floor Standard: School flagged if <65% meet expectations

  • League Tables: School rankings based on SATs results

When Are SATs in 2025?
  • KS1 SATs: Throughout May (school-determined)

  • KS2 SATs: 12–15 May 2025

    • 12 May: SPaG

    • 13 May: Reading

    • 14–15 May: Maths

Understanding Results
  • Scaled score 100+ = met expected standard

  • Scores below 100 = areas for support, not failure

  • Parents usually get results in end-of-year reports

Key Takeaways
  • SATs are tools, not judgments

  • True growth = curiosity, confidence, love of learning

  • Understanding SATs helps parents support children calmly and confidently
