Address gaps before moving on to SATs revision
Programmes are available to address gaps and secure understanding in core KS2 topics.
A dedicated SATs Booster Programme is also available to help build confidence and familiarity with SATs-style fluency and reasoning questions and the strategies they’ll need to answer them.
In a survey of our schools in July 2025, Year 6 Third Space Learners did better on their maths SATs than the national average and 9 out of 10 teachers felt the tutoring helped their pupils achieve higher maths SATs scores.

Structured and scaffolded Year 6 maths tutoring lessons
Every lesson is designed by qualified teachers to follow an “I do, we do, you do” structure to build understanding of essential Year 6 objectives
SATs booster lessons follow this same structure but focus on SATs-style fluency and reasoning questions.
AI tutor Skye has been specifically trained to use this curriculum of primary lessons, drawing on prompts designed for every individual question and lesson.
Every lesson starts with a short diagnostic assessment and Skye will adapt teaching accordingly, skipping straight to independent practice if the pupil is ready or working through the lesson as normal if not.
Throughout, Skye uses formative assessment to identify misconceptions and give relevant hints.
Every lesson ends with a short summative assessment to check understanding and track progress over time.
Year 6 pupils are not limited to Year 6 lessons and can work through Year 4 or 5 lessons if needed.
