Developing skills and strategies for SATs

We hosted a series of free webinars dedicated to ‘Developing skills and strategies for SATs’ and ‘A deep dive into the 2024 Reading SATs paper’ with special guest Heather March, Director of Teaching and Learning at Aim High Academy Trust.

This webinar covers:

  • Practical strategies related to comprehension and fluency.
  • What needs to be prioritised in order to successfully prepare for SATs.
  • How using DreamBox Reading Plus for three 30-minute sessions per week will directly impact your school’s SATs results.

As a follow-up to our previous Preparing for SATs 2024 webinar, this webinar explores:

  • National reactions to this year’s Reading SATs paper compared to previous years.
  • Results from our survey exploring the paper’s difficulty, fairness and overall effectiveness.
  • The trust’s experience with the 2024 SATs paper compared to previous years.
  • How the strategies Heather suggested in the Preparing for SATs 2024 webinar helped prepare her students for the paper.

While this webinar wasn’t focused on our online reading development programme, Reading Plus, Heather March named it as a key strategy used across her trust.

Some of the key benefits are:

  • Increased reading speed: Reading Plus is designed to help students improve their reading speed, allowing them to take in more content efficiently.
  • Enhanced vocabulary knowledge: Reading Plus expands students’ vocabulary and exposes them to age-appropriate and ability-levelled texts.
  • Improved comprehension skills: The programme enhances students’ comprehension abilities, ensuring they can understand and analyse texts effectively.
  • Effective SATs preparation: Reading Plus provides valuable SATs preparation by honing reading speed, vocabulary and comprehension skills.
