Reading Planet is out now for Reception and Key Stage 1. Key Stage 2 will be available in 2019.
Give your children the best possible preparation for the SATs with our Optional Tests for GPS, reading and mathematics for Years 1 to 6. The tests match the style, format and demand of the SATs and have been written by assessment experts with experience writing for the national tests - so you know that you can trust them for assessing children's performance against national expectations.
We offer three comparable sets, so you can use the tests flexibly in line with your primary assessment policy. Optional Tests assess the entire year's worth of content and are ideal end-of-year assessments. They can also be used to baseline at the start of the year (using the tests from the year below). View products from Set A, B and C by selecting from the icons below.
Performance Indicators are provided for every test, to help teachers identify whether children are performing in line with national expectations. We also provide National Test Indicators for Set A Years 2 and 6 to help teachers understand how children may perform in the national tests.
An independent review found our Optional Tests to be reliable and effective, so you know that you can trust them for your summative primary assessment solution.
