Start Year 5 and Year 6 with a clear picture of what pupils know, where the gaps are and what needs to happen next.

This Year 5 & Year 6 Maths Baseline Assessment Bundle combines two comprehensive diagnostic assessment toolkits designed to help teachers move from assessment to targeted teaching and intervention.

Rather than simply producing a percentage score, each toolkit helps you analyse attainment across key mathematical strands, identify misconceptions, group pupils for intervention and plan appropriate next steps.

Both year groups include a 100-mark assessment, teacher guidance, full marking and diagnostic support, intervention materials, SEND/accessibility resources and an Excel assessment tracker.

What’s included?

You receive the complete Year 5 Maths Baseline Assessment Toolkit and Year 6 Maths Baseline Assessment Toolkit.

Each year group includes:
Teacher Administration Guide
Student Assessment Booklet
Teacher Mark Scheme & Diagnostic Notes
Diagnostic Framework & Worked Exemplification
Intervention Guide
National Curriculum Objective Mapping
SEND / Accessible Student Assessment Booklet
Inclusive Assessment Teacher Guide
Parent Communication Template
Automated Excel Assessment Tracker

That’s 20 coordinated resources across Years 5 and 6.

More than a baseline test

The assessments cover key mathematical areas including:
Number & Place Value | Calculation | Fractions, Decimals & Percentages | Measurement | Geometry & Position | Statistics & Reasoning

The accompanying diagnostic materials help teachers identify pupils who have broad gaps as well as those who may appear secure overall but have specific weaknesses within individual strands.

The Excel trackers make the assessment data much easier to use, providing support for:

Class analysis • Individual pupil profiles • Strand analysis • Attainment judgements • Planning priorities • Intervention grouping • Progress tracking

This means the assessment does not end when the papers are marked.

Built for beginning-of-year assessment

Each assessment is structured as:

• Part A: Arithmetic & Fluency
  30 minutes | 40 marks

**Part B: Reasoning & Problem Solving
45 minutes | 60 marks

Total: 75 minutes | 100 marks

The assessments can also be administered across two sessions to reduce cognitive load.

SEND and inclusion built in

Both year groups include a dedicated SEND / accessible version alongside teacher guidance for appropriate access arrangements.

The accessible versions maintain the mathematical demand while providing a clearer layout, additional working space and reduced visual overload.

This means teachers do not need to create a separate assessment for pupils who require additional accessibility support.

From assessment to intervention

The real value of the bundle is what happens after assessment.

Use the results to:

Assess → Diagnose → Identify Gaps → Group Pupils → Target Intervention → Track Progress

The intervention guides provide practical activities linked to identified areas of weakness, while the trackers help teachers identify pupils requiring additional support.

Ideal for

Beginning-of-year assessment • September baseline testing • Year 5 and Year 6 teachers • KS2 maths leaders • Transition between year groups • Intervention planning • SEND provision • Pupil progress meetings • Curriculum planning • Identifying learning gaps • Target setting

Why buy the bundle?

Buying the combined Year 5 & Year 6 bundle gives schools and teachers a consistent assessment approach across upper KS2.

It is particularly useful for:

Year 5/6 teams • Maths subject leaders • Two-form or larger schools • Intervention teachers • Schools wanting consistent diagnostic assessment across UKS2

Instead of purchasing separate tests, trackers, SEND versions and intervention resources, everything is organised into two coordinated assessment systems.

Two year groups. 20 resources. One consistent approach to assessing, diagnosing and planning next steps.
