These are excel spreadsheet Gap Analysis documents for the May 2016 Year Six SATs Papers for Reading, Mathematics (Arithmetic, Reasoning 1 & 2), GPS and Spelling Papers. The sheet totals up the scores automatically and each child’s final score changes colour to reflect their ability.
If their total score for a subject goes green, it means they would have passed the 2016 SATs with that score. If it goes Orange, it means they are within touching distance. If it goes Green with a yellow font, it means that child would have achieved a ‘More Able’ score for that tested subject.
There are three spreadsheet documents. One for Reading, one for Maths, and one for GPS. They are broken down into individual papers inside.
I have also included a digital document, linking to a freely available copy of each test, mark scheme and instructions. Additionally, I have included the conversion tables from RAW Score to Scaled Score.
All a teacher has to do is enter their children’s names and enter the 0’s, 1’s, 2’s or 3’s for each question, which also change colour too for a visual reference. I recommend that a teacher should enter ‘N’ if a child did not attempt that question. This gives an idea of who is not even attempting certain questions, not just whether they got the question wrong.
Last academic year I used these grids to provide targeted feedback and to spot trends. As a result my class were well over National Average for all subjects (much to my relief!)
I take requests for Gap Analysis Grids. Please leave feedback if you like this resource as I am planning to produce more for each SATs paper going forward, as well as CGP Practice Papers.
Please remember to rate this resource as I made this to save teachers time. Thank-you.
This is a two page document about Myths, Legends and Folk Tales, covering the difference between the three and definitions of what each are.
Excellent as an activity to get children to summarise the three different types of story or good as reading comprehension.

A very simple to use tracking grid that can be passed up with cohorts. All a teacher/LSA needs to do is put in the short date of when a child moved on to the next level/box.
Features approximate tracking of:
Target Tracker Band
Read, Write, Inc group
Old curriculum book bands
Can track as many or as few children as desired
Three famous poems and reading comprehension questions to go with them. Questions include question types found in the 2016 and 2017 SATs papers or in End of Year assessments.
Poem 1 - The Fisherman - Abbie Farwell Brown
Poem 2 - Jabberwocky - Lewis Carroll
Poem 3 - Wynken, Blynken, and Nod - Eugene Field
I have used these as whole class exercises and for specific groups in guided reading to great effect.
These are excel spreadsheets Gap Analysis documents for the 2018 Year Two SATs Papers for GPS.
The sheet totals up the scores automatically and each child’s final score changes colour to reflect their ability.
If their total score for a subject goes green, it means they would have passed the 2018 SATs with that score. If it goes Purple, it means that child would have achieved a ‘Greater Depth’ score for that tested subject.
I have also included an instructions and document page, linking to a freely available copy of each test, mark scheme and instructions. Additionally, I have included a link to the conversion tables from RAW Score to Scaled Score.
All a teacher has to do is enter their children’s names and enter the 0’s, 1’s, 2’s or 3’s for each question, which also change colour too for a visual reference. I recommend that a teacher should enter ‘N’ if a child did not attempt that question. This gives an idea of who is not even attempting certain questions, not just whether they got the question wrong.
The sheets are set up for 32 pupils but more can be added/deleted and instructions are on the first page/sheet. Some cells are locked/protected in this document but the parts that you need to insert yourself are editable. This is so that the formulas/algorithms do not break and render the spreadsheet’s functionalities as broken.
