2026 SATs papers

The five KS2 maths and grammar, punctuation and spelling papers Year 6 sat in May 2026, on screen with the real time limit.

Maths papers

Three papers, 110 marks in total. No calculator in any of them.

Grammar, punctuation and spelling papers

Two papers, 70 marks in total, often called SPaG for short. The spelling paper is read aloud, a sentence at a time, so it needs the sound on.

What you needed in 2026

In 2026 you needed 56 out of 110 in maths and 34 out of 70 in grammar, punctuation and spelling to reach a scaled score of 100, the expected standard.

Finish all the papers in a subject here and the scaled score is worked out for you, with the 2026 table. Each year has its own table, because the papers differ a little in difficulty.
