About this listen

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
