We only started using test papers from june onwards, (sat exams in Oct) the papers are quite intense and unless the children have learnt the material it can be quite disheartening if they score low or simply don’t know the work.

When we did do the tests I did a copy alongside Ds. It made it less intense for him and made me appreciate how much work was involved.

We found reading and expanding his vocabulary and understanding really made a difference and made him more confident in his own abilities
