Pupils at Asquith Primary find SATs Companion Fun & Engaging

“Pupils found the platform easy to navigate and really enjoyed, and benefitted from seeing their answers and scores straight away – the children in my class were able to set themselves targets and ask for help in areas they struggled with before I had even looked at the scores myself – many took it upon themselves to watch the helpful videos and then redo the activity – this is an excellent feature. This year, we have decided to use SATs companion again as well as extending it to some of our year 5 pupils –  we would recommend it to other schools.”

Great Easton School uses SATs Companion for Targeted Activities

“We have used SATs Companion since January 2018, I’ve found it useful in supplementing and supporting children’s learning outside the classroom through the videos. The analysis tools show clearly who can do what and any areas which need more input so that activities can be targeted on that. We were very pleased with our 2018 SATs results, and using SATs Companion definitely benefitted our children in preparing for them.”

SATs Companion’s Positive Impact at Hugh Myddelton School

“SATs Companion has been extremely useful at Hugh Myddelton as children are able to revise and practise SATs style questions both at home and at school. It has had a real impact on the positive data we have achieved in the past few years. This is because it links so closely with our classroom practice and real SATs style questions.It it is the only digital resource I have used to support children in their understanding of SATs and to support in their attainment that is so closely linked to year 6 style questions.”

SATs Companion is transformational at Dilkes Academy. 

It’s a game-changer! It’s an opportunity for learning to be consolidated both inside and outside the classroom, and along the way, the reports give us the opportunity to target focus groups immediately.

It allows us to spend time doing what makes the most difference – plug gaps! The user-friendly interface has had great reviews from the kids, and all adult groups within the school have been able to utilise the report functions with ease.

SATs Companion is reducing workload at Bevois Town. 

At Bevois Town Primary School, our pupils have been using SATs Companion to support their learning for 5 years.

With over 20,000 questions answered last year alone, it is clear that the platform is extremely popular with our pupils.

The ability to precisely identify and target the areas that individual children need to develop is incredibly useful and helps to reduce teacher workload and accelerate children’s progress. The inclusion of video lessons that allow children to recap a vast range of concepts is perhaps the greatest asset of SATs Companion, and certainly one that our children and parents use.

The platform not only promotes independence but through continuous practice, it builds the children’s confidence in their ability to succeed in SATs exams. The service that the team at SATs Companion provide is excellent and they are always there to offer a helping hand.

SATs Companion is used to support intervention groups at Nayland Primary 

We began using SATs Companion at the start of this academic year. It has been invaluable! In our year 6 class, we have used SATs Companion to support intervention groups led by a teacher, and to recap previous learning with individuals and small groups, supported by a teaching assistant.

One of the programme’s greatest attributes is that it can be used independently by pupils to focus on gaps in their learning. 

As a teacher, it has saved me time as everything in one place, it even marks it for you so you can spend time analysing results.

We have loved it so much that we are introducing it to our year 5 children as well as our year 6 in the next academic year. 

It’s child friendly, motivating, reduces teacher workload and raises attainment – what’s not to like?

Setting homework is much quicker and there’s no marking. Planning for SATs revision has been improved and takes less time Children’s scores are improving on the tasks and the practice area is proving invaluable.
