As a SATs Graduate Teaching Assistant, you will support Year 6 pupils through focused intervention work in reading, maths, and SPaG. You will deliver structured 1:1 and small group sessions linked to the class sequence, using short tasks, clear modelling, and guided practice to secure key skills. In reading, you will build fluency, stamina, and accuracy with SATs-style questions, supporting pupils to retrieve evidence and explain answers clearly.

In maths, you will reinforce arithmetic, fractions, decimals, percentages, and reasoning by breaking steps down and checking understanding through quick questioning. You will help pupils improve speed and confidence under timed conditions, using past-paper practice and mini-assessments to identify gaps. You will track outcomes from each session, share key points with the class teacher, and adapt support so each session stays purposeful.

You will also help prepare resources, organise groups, and promote calm routines so learning stays focused.

You are a graduate who brings structure, calm, and high expectations to every session. You explain ideas clearly, keep pupils on task, and spot gaps fast through questioning and short checks. You take direction well, act on feedback, and build positive relationships so pupils feel supported and ready for SATs.
