Year 6 2025 - 2026
Welcome to Year 6 at Causeway Green Primary School
Year 6 is for children aged 10–11 and is the final year of Key Stage 2. It’s a year full of learning, responsibility and preparation as pupils get ready for the exciting step into secondary school the following September.
A key part of Year 6 is the end of Key Stage 2 National Curriculum Assessments, more commonly known as SATs. While these assessments are important, we work hard to ensure that pupils are well prepared without feeling pressured. Learning is kept engaging and enjoyable, and teachers support children to approach the tests with confidence and resilience. To help you know more about SATS, we invite parents to our SATS meeting and ask you to read the SATS files below.
Alongside preparing for SATs, Year 6 is also a time for pupils to develop independence, take on extra responsibilities, and celebrate their achievements as they reach the end of their primary journey. It’s a year of hard work, but also of fun, friendship and memorable experiences that help them move forward with confidence into secondary school.
