Important update from TheSchoolRun

For the past 13 years, TheSchoolRun has been run by a small team of mums working from home, dedicated to providing quality educational resources to primary school parents. Unfortunately, rising supplier costs and falling revenue have made it impossible for us to continue operating, and we’ve had to make the difficult decision to close. The good news: We’ve arranged for another educational provider to take over many of our resources. These will be hosted on a new portal, where the content will be updated and expanded to support your child’s learning.

What this means for subscribers:

  • Your subscription is still active, and for now, you can keep using the website as normal — just log in with your usual details to access all our articles and resources*.
  • In a few months, all resources will move to the new portal. You’ll continue to have access there until your subscription ends. We’ll send you full details nearer the time.
  • As a thank you for your support, we’ll also be sending you 16 primary school eBooks (worth £108.84) to download and keep.

A few changes to be aware of:

  • The Learning Journey weekly email has ended, but your child’s plan will still be updated on your dashboard each Monday. Just log in to see the recommended worksheets.
  • The 11+ weekly emails have now ended. We sent you all the remaining emails in the series at the end of March — please check your inbox (and spam folder) if you haven’t seen them. You can also follow the full programme here: 11+ Learning Journey.

If you have any questions, please contact us at [email protected]. Thank you for being part of our journey it’s been a privilege to support your family’s learning.

*If you need to reset your password, it will still work as usual. Please check your spam folder if the reset email doesn’t appear in your inbox.

Key Stage 2 - 2012 LEVEL 6 English SATs Papers

Key Stage 2 - 2012 LEVEL 6 English SATs Papers
The complete set of 2012 English KS2 SATs papers, free to download, for the Level 6 test taken by very able children at the end of Year 6 from 2012 until 2014.
Keystage:  KS2, Year 6

Level 6 SATs were advanced level SATs taken by Year 6 children who were excelling in English and/or maths between 2012 and 2014. Under the new SATs system, introduced in 2016, there are no longer additional papers for high achievers. Instead, all children take the same tests, but they will include questions designed to let the most able children show their knowledge and skills. However, the old Level 6 papers can still be used to help your child prepare for SATs. 

This pack includes:

  • English Reading Booklet
  • Reading Answer Booklet
  • Longer Task Writing Booklet
  • Writing booklet: Shorter and Longer Tasks

The test papers have been merged into one easy download for you.

You can also download the answers and marking scheme so you can look through your child's work and compare it with what teachers and examiners are looking for.
