Reading Tests Years 2 to 6 – SATs-Style Set 1 (Free)

Short end-of-year reading tests for every year group from Year 2 to Year 6, written for the national curriculum in England. Each test is about half the length of the real SATs, at the same pace, so it fits into a single lesson. Original stories, poems and information texts written for each age group, with questions in the style of the KS1 and KS2 reading tests.

Great for

• End-of-year or end-of-term assessment in school
• Short test practice and revision before the real tests
• Homework and booster work at home
• Tutors checking progress

The five tests

• Year 2 – a story with questions, plus a reading booklet and answer paper – 20 marks
• Year 3 – reading booklet and answer booklet – 35 minutes, 20 marks
• Year 4 – reading booklet and answer booklet – 40 minutes, 22 marks
• Year 5 – reading booklet and answer booklet – 40 minutes, 25 marks
• Year 6 – reading booklet and answer booklet – 30 minutes, 25 marks

For each year group

• The test – print-ready PDFs, with clear pictures and plenty of writing space.
• The mark scheme – every answer on one A4 sheet for quick marking, then the full scheme with answers to accept and reject, the curriculum reference and a ‘Next time’ teaching tip for every question.
• The Question Level Analysis (QLA) – an Excel workbook: type each child’s marks and it shows every question and topic, what to reteach first, who to group, and a one-page report for every child. It comes blank and with example data.

This is Set 1 of six. Sets 2 to 6 follow the same format and the same end-of-year standard, and together the six sets cover the whole year’s content.

Good to know

• The tests and mark schemes are PDFs. The QLAs are Excel workbooks (.xlsx) for Windows or Mac, with no macros.
• Each QLA holds up to 500 children. Formulas are locked so results can’t be broken by accident, and your data stays on your computer.
• Free for any family, tutor or school to use with its own children. Please share the link to this page rather than re-uploading the files.
