Program Overview
The key stage 2 maths test is three papers. The test framework sets them out plainly: Paper 1 is arithmetic, 40 marks in 30 minutes, and Papers 2 and 3 are mathematical reasoning, 35 marks and 40 minutes each, so 110 marks across 110 minutes in total. In 2027 the maths papers are timetabled for Wednesday 12 May (Papers 1 and 2) and Thursday 13 May (Paper 3). Results come back as a scaled score between 80 and 120, and a score of at least 100 meets the expected standard.
Underneath all of it sit the times tables. The national curriculum expects children to have memorised the tables up to 12 by the end of Year 4, and the multiplication tables check tests exactly that: 25 questions, six seconds each, taken in June of Year 4. A child who still counts up in fives to find 7 times 5 loses time on every paper, so this course starts there.
The course runs in four phases: times tables to instant recall, the arithmetic paper method by method, the reasoning papers question type by question type, and finally full papers under real timing. Classes are live and small, so the teacher sees each child's working, not just the answer, and parents get a short written note every month on what has moved and what is next.
What Makes This Program Different
- Built from the government's own key stage 2 mathematics test framework: the three papers, their marks and timings, and the resource list children actually use
- Times tables first, because the multiplication tables check and every SATs paper lean on instant recall
- The arithmetic paper taught as a set of written methods, each practised until it is automatic and checked
- Reasoning taught by question type: multi-step word problems, explain-your-answer questions, measures, geometry and statistics
- Full papers under real timing in the last two months, marked against the published mark schemes
- Calm by design: short daily practice and clear progress notes for parents, not late-night cramming
