This resource is intended to be used to help teach the skills of the KS2 National Curriculum for Reading, by domain.
Included:
• Comprehension questions for the first eleven chapters of the book.
• A teaching PowerPoint with an introduction to the author, their other works and copies of the questions.
This resource works best if the chapter is read, talked about and discussed in one day, then comprehension questions are given the day after.
This resource has been used with both Year Five and Year Six classes to great effect and has boosted their reading skills and their comprehension scores.
A complete bundle of Gap Analysis Grids / QLA (Reading, GPS, Spelling, Arithmetic and Reasoning) for the 2019 KS1 SATs assessments. I have also included links to the papers, the mark schemes and the conversion grids within each spreadsheet.
Please read the description of each individual resource for more information.
These are excel spreadsheets Gap Analysis documents for the 2019 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 2019 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.
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.
Included in this bundle are three complete suites of Gap Analysis / Question Level Analysis grids for the 2016, 2017, 2018 and 2019 KS1 SATs.
Every paper, every question.
Grids change colour depending on whether questions have been answered correctly and the grids auto calculate scores, indicating pass/fail or greater depth.
Please see individual resources for more details.

This resource will save you many hours work when trying to use Assessment for Learning in your class.
There are two QLA grids included in one Excel document for help with Gap Analysis.
Arithmetic
Reasoning
Input the data using the marks from the papers and the grid will change colour to show where a child has been successful or not answered a question correctly, or at all.
The spreadsheet will auto-calculate how successful the whole cohort has been on particular questions. These are linked directly to the WRM small steps so you can see which lessons and steps need to be revised. 30 children can be entered in this document.
The total score thresholds auto-calculate and change colour to help indicate which children are working at approximately an expected standard (EXS) level or a Greater Depth (GDS) level. These thresholds use historical KS2 SATs thresholds to make them as accurate as possible.
Please note, some of the cells are locked for editing so that users do not break the spreadsheet functionality. Passwords will not be given out. However, I am more than happy to assist with any adaptations you need.
Additionally, I am in no way affiliated with White Rose Maths. No White Rose Maths resources are included in this product. Freely available content is linked to within it.

Perfect for a Maths coordinator looking to have detailed discussions with class teachers about the specific strengths and areas for development for a whole cohort or individual children, these QLA/Gap Analysis grids for each of the White Rose Maths Autumn term assessments will help you support teachers to draw accurate and impactful conclusions from their assessment data.
So far these resources have been used:
To plan revision for a whole class.
To plan interventions for children
In pupil progress meetings to indicate areas for development.
As part of an evidence base for Ofsted deep dives into Maths

Suitable for Years 5-7, this worksheet challenges children to use their knowledge of substitution to find the value of an equation.
Instead of the usual 'a', 'b', 'c' etc, this activity asks children to find the value of equations that contain snowmen, angels, presents, santas etc.
This is a 4-way differentiated worksheet/activity sheet that tests children's understanding of how to add a mixed number to a proper fraction, which is tested at the end of Year Six and onwards in SATs assessments (arithmetic/reasoning) and in other end of year assessments.
There are four challenges:
-Add a mixed number to a proper fraction (same denominators).
-Add a mixed number to a proper fraction (different denominators).
-Add two mixed numbers to a proper fraction (same denominators)
-Add two mixed numbers to a proper fraction (different denominators)
At each stage, children will be expected to give their answer in its simplest form, as is standard practice in the assessed tests.
I have also included an answer sheet.
This is a 3-way differentiated worksheet/activity sheet that tests children’s knowledge of percentages.
The three challenges are as follows:
-Find 10% of a quantity.
-Find multiples of five or ten percent of a quantity.
-– find any percentage of a quantity and word problems
I have included an answer sheet.
This is a 4-way differentiated rounding activity sheet/worksheet that will help children master rounding.
The four challenges are:
-Round the to the nearest ten.
-Round to the nearest hundred and thousand
-Round to the nearest ten thousand and hundred thousand
