This week, we’re joined by teacher, education writer and Learning by Questions legend Sophie Bartlett for a full-on SATs debrief! We take a deep dive into the 2025 Year 6 SATs papers – English, GPS, and Maths – and break down what really stood out.
We chat about:
Recurring question strands and skills being tested
-Some wildly harsh mark scheme moments
-Questions we thought were genuinely clever and well-designed
-What this year’s papers might tell us about where primary assessment is heading
