TheSchoolRun.com closure date
As we informed you a few months ago, TheSchoolRun has had to make the difficult decision to close due to financial pressures and the company has now ceased trading. We had hoped to keep our content available through a partnership with another educational provider, but this provider has since withdrawn from the agreement.
As a result, we now have to permanently close TheSchoolRun.com. However, to give subscribers time to download any content they’d like to keep, we will keep the website open until 31st July 2025. After this date, the site will be taken down and there will be no further access to any resources. We strongly encourage you to download and save any resources you think you may want to use in the future.
In particular, we suggest downloading:
- Learning packs
- All the worksheets from the 11+ programme, if you are following this with your child
- Complete Learning Journey programmes (the packs below include all 40 worksheets for each programme)
You should already have received 16 primary school eBooks (worth £108.84) to download and keep. If you haven’t received these, please contact us at [email protected] before 31st July 2025, and we will send them to you.
We are very sorry that there is no way to continue offering access to resources and sincerely apologise for the inconvenience caused.
Y6 SATs Challenge Learning Journey
How to get started on the Y6 SATs Challenge Learning Journey
The new KS2 SATs, introduced in May 2016 to reflect the new curriculum, are extremely challenging compared to previous years, with only 5% of pupils achieving a 'higher scaled score' of 110.
The ability to apply knowledge to a diverse range of questions, a high-level of mastery in grammar and actually knowing how to complete the test in the time allotted are all key requirements to scoring well in the new-look SATs, as is a disciplined approach to information processing and sophisticated decoding skills in reading comprehension. Following requests from parents, we've put together 50 subscriber-only KS2 SATs Challenge worksheets, 25 for maths (dividing fractions, tricky percentages, negative decimals, calculating the area of compound shapes, volumes of cuboids and more) and 25 for English (using powerful language, accessing older texts, etymology and inference skills, poetic language, reading literary non-fiction texts and more). Work your way through our challenge worksheets by following our Y6 SATs Challenge Learning Journey, below; you can track your progress on the downloadable Y6 SATs Challenge Learning Journey checklist.
Everything parents need to know about KS2 SATs is covered in our Y6 SATs hub page, with links to advice about curriculum areas tested in the exams, how the marking works and what you can do to support your child's revision.
