Keep pupils engaged after SATs with our collection of Year 6 after SATs maths projects, investigations and problem-solving activities. Designed for the final term of primary school, these resources help pupils apply their mathematical knowledge in meaningful contexts while developing reasoning, collaboration and independent thinking.
From practical investigations and logic challenges to enterprise projects, event planning and real-world budgeting tasks, pupils revisit key Year 6 maths objectives through engaging mathematical enquiries. These activities encourage pupils to explain their reasoning, test ideas, analyse data and solve authentic problems before moving on to secondary school.
Resources within this collection include:
Our Year 6 after SATs maths projects give pupils opportunities to apply the skills they have developed throughout Key Stage 2 in practical and meaningful ways. Rather than focusing on test preparation, these activities encourage pupils to use maths to solve problems, make decisions, analyse information and communicate their thinking.
The collection includes investigations covering number, algebra, geometry and reasoning alongside larger project-based challenges involving enterprise, budgeting, statistics, measurement, design and planning. Pupils might create a business, organise an event, redesign part of the school environment, analyse community data or solve complex mathematical puzzles.
Ideal for the final half term of Year 6, these resources help maintain engagement while consolidating key mathematical concepts through collaborative and independent learning. Explore more resources from our Year 6 Maths scheme.
