The right support at the right time
We believe that the best way to be prepared for SATs is to build solid foundations before Year 6. That’s why you can start the KS2 SATs Intervention in the Summer term of Year 5, to plug gaps and address misconceptions ahead of September.
Autumn Term
Foundation
Lessons focus on securing core KS2 concepts and plugging gaps.
Spring Term
Consolidation
Lessons focus on consolidating, revising and practising for SATs.
Summer Term
Transition
Lessons focus on preparing Y5 pupils for the transition to Y6.
Assessment & lesson selection
We begin by assessing your pupils’ gaps against Y6 expectations.
You decide whether you’d like lesson objectives to be automatically selected or if you’d rather choose from our curriculum of over 270 lessons.
Weekly 1-to-1 teaching
Our SATs booster lessons are delivered by specialist tutors, who adapt the pitch and pace to each individual pupil
1-to-1 conversation helps pupils develop their reasoning and problems solving skills. They are challenged to demonstrate that they fully understand each question, a key skill for SATs.
SATs preparation
Lessons incorporate problem questions for pupils to talk through with their tutor.
Pupils become more confident quickly and accurately applying their skills in a range of contexts and drawing upon a variety of methods simultaneously.
Reporting and assessment
You can quickly and easily see the content your pupils are covering using our online platform.
Weekly reports ensure you’re kept in the loop and are able to feed this assessment into your class SATs preparation, whilst progress overviews capture impact across a term or year.
The Third Space Maths Hub
Your school gets access to hundreds of resources to support teaching across the whole of Key Stage 2, not just those Year 6 pupils enrolled on the intervention.
This includes a whole range of SATs-specific resources, from practice papers to revision packs to modelled question videos for your pupils.
Summer Term: Y5 Intervention
Start our KS2 SATs Intervention with your Year 5 pupils. Plug gaps and address misconceptions to get ready for Year 6.
