Level 6 SATs were used in English primary schools until the end of May 2015 to offer very able children an extra challenge in their end-of-Y6 exams.
The new KS2 SATs tests set in schools since May 2016 do not have a Level 6 variant, though L6 past papers can still be used to offer children extra practice in the run up to the exams.
