SATs can feel like a big deal for children (and parents!), but with the right support, they don’t have to be stressful. In fact, this final year of primary school is a great time to help your child build confidence, strengthen their understanding, and feel proud of what they can achieve.

Concrete materials including place value counters, cubes, number lines, and base ten blocks (also called dienes) can make abstract ideas visible and tangible, allowing children to explore and understand maths through hands-on experiences.
