Past Papers: Use past SATs papers to familiarise your child with the format and types of questions. This helps build confidence and improve performance.

Shadow Papers: These papers will have the same skills tested in each question but with different numbers or contexts. These can be great for giving students papers that cover an accurate skill set at the right level when all past papers have been used.

Targeted Practice

Weak Areas: Identify areas where your child needs improvement and focus on those. Use specific exercises to address weaknesses in times tables, arithmetic, comprehension, grammar, or writing.

Reading Comprehension: Practise reading comprehension exercises that require critical thinking and inference skills. Discuss the answers to deepen understanding.

Test-Taking Strategies

Answer Techniques: Teach test-taking techniques, such as reading questions carefully, highlighting key information, and eliminating incorrect answers.

Confidence Building: Build your child’s confidence by emphasising their progress and providing positive reinforcement.
