The Key Stage 2 SATs take place at the beginning of May and are used to check whether your child has achieved age-related expectations for English and Mathematics.
Once all SAT’s papers are marked, your child will be awarded a scaled score between 80 and 120. A score 100 (or more) means that your child has met (or exceeded) the expected standard.
For some parents and children, the formal exam conditions used for SAT’s might feel particularly daunting. As a result, their scores may not be an accurate indication of their progress and ability. Hence, their targets may be updated once they begin secondary school and show their true ability.
At The Study Space we can help your child by going over the areas that they find the most difficult. The initial assessment will guide our tutors to understand your child’s individual academic strengths and then work on their weaknesses in a nice and calm study space.
Our free assessment / free taster session lasts approximately 40 to 80 minutes depending on age which allows us to identify areas for concern and to work on an individual programme tailored to your child. From Reception to Year 7 the activities are split up into 6 areas. This might for example be 4 Maths areas and 2 English or split evenly depending on the assessment. Once a student reaches Year 8 they are ready to start working towards their GCSE and so students usually pick a subject they need to work on such as a Pure Mathematics Programme Only, English Language or Literature, Science, History or Geography.
Since joining Study Space Tuition, my 12-year-old daughter, who is currently in Year 7, has made incredible progress in maths. She used to struggle with confidence and often felt overwhelmed, but now she approaches problems with enthusiasm and determination. The supportive environment and expert teaching have made a huge difference — not only has her understanding improved massively, but she’s also become so much more confident in her abilities. I’m truly grateful for the positive impact Study Space has had on her learning journey.
My son has only been attending Study Space Tuition since September, but the transformation has been amazing. In just a few months, his confidence has grown so much — he now feels ready to take on his SATs in May and is much more comfortable speaking up in class. The tailored support and encouragement he’s received have made all the difference. We’re so pleased with his progress!
My son has been attending Study Space Tuition for 14 months, and the progress he’s made is truly incredible. He’s gone from a Level 1 in English to scoring a 4 in his recent mock exams — a result we once thought was out of reach. More importantly, he now believes in himself and has the confidence to aim high in his GCSEs this year. The support and dedication from the team at Study Space have been invaluable.
We are so grateful to the team at the Study Space! Over the past few weeks, my daughter has been attending maths tuition, and the transformation has been incredible. She has gone from feeling unsure to genuinely enjoying the subject. Her confidence has grown immensely, and she now looks forward to every class. The friendly, supportive, and attentive teachers have made all the difference. Thank you for creating such a positive and encouraging learning environment!
