These are excel spreadsheet Gap Analysis documents for the 2023 Year Two SATs Papers for Maths .
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 2023 SATs with that score. If it goes Purple with a White font, it means that child would have achieved a ‘More Able’ 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 or 2’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 30 or 60 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.
Applicable for the 2021-2022 WRM assessments.
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.

This is a two-challenge activity sheet/worksheet aimed at children in Years 5-7.
Children are asked to put fractions in ascending and descending order when their denominators are not the same. This tests their knowledge of fractions, common multiples and simplification.
An activity sheet/worksheet where children are challenged to:
- Calculate the area of squares and rectangles.
- Calculate the area of parallelograms and trapeziums.
- Solve worded problems that involve area, dimensions and money.
Suitable for a first time round activity or revision, particularly for Years 5, 6 and 7.
Editable version included. A PowerPoint/PDF has also been added to aid with the teaching of this lesson.
This is a differentiated worksheet to help children master opposite angles. Answers are included.
Children are challenged to:
- name the type of angle a ‘missing angle’ is.
- calculate its size in degrees
- measure it accurately using a protractor.
All angles are correctly sized.
There are two sheets, an Expected Standard sheet and a more challenging Greater Depth sheet (2016+ Curriculum). On each sheet there are nine missing angles, meaning that children have 27 things to do in order to complete one activity sheet.
Please rate and/or comment. All feedback is valuable.
- Calculate the area of quadrilaterals including squares, rectangles, trapeziums and parallelograms.
- Calculate the area of triangles
- Calculate the area of compound shapes, including shapes with missing lengths and decimal sides.
Differentiated. Now includes a PowerPoint and pdf to help with teaching and display (found in the quadrilaterals section)
Differentiated activity sheet/ worksheet for KS2/KS3 children.
Challenges include:
Challenge 1 – Name parts of a circle
Challenge 2 – Calculate the radius and diameter when given the other measurement.
Challenge 3 –Calculate the circumference (πd) of a circle (to a maximum of 2dp) when given r, d or c.
Mastery Challenge - Calculate the area of a circle (πr2)
Answer sheet included.

Tried and tested, perfect to challenge children in a fun way.
Included in this resource are 12 nets for 3D shapes. All shapes have tabs, meaning that they can be independently cut out and stuck together in a lesson. Also included is a step-by-step how to calculate volume PowerPoint that uses formulas as well as measurements.
Shapes include:
Cube
Cuboid
Icosohedron
Square Based Pyramid
Triangle Based Pyramid
Cone
Octagonal Prism
Hexagonal Pyramid
Octahedron
Cylinder
Die (cube with dots on)
Triangular Prism
A 4-way differentiated activity sheet/worksheet that will develop children's understanding of rounding to the nearest hundred or thousand.
Challenges include:
Challenge 1 - Use a pre-made numberline to help you round the following numbers to the level of accuracy in the brackets.
Challenge 2 - Draw a place value grid or numberline to help you round the following numbers to the level of accuracy in the brackets.
Challenge 3 - Draw a number line that goes from 0 to 10,000. Indicate, with a labelled arrow, where the following numbers are placed.
Challenge 4 – Worded Problem

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 2017 SATs with that score. If it goes Green with a yellow font, it means that child would have achieved a ‘More Able’ score for that tested subject.
