About the KS2 English Reading SAT Buster: Non-Fiction - Book 1 (for the 2024 tests)

If your Year 6 child (ages 10–11) is preparing for the KS2 English SATs and you want focused, effective practice on non-fiction reading, the KS2 English Reading SAT Buster: Non-Fiction – Book 1 (for the 2026 tests) delivers exactly that. This CGP workbook zeroes in on the reading comprehension skills your child needs to tackle non-fiction passages with confidence, covering all the question types they'll meet in the official test. It's a straightforward, no-fuss resource that gets straight to work building exam-ready skills.

Inside, your child will work through four carefully chosen non-fiction texts, each accompanied by a range of questions designed to mirror the style and challenge of the real SATs Reading paper. Every question targets a specific skill—whether it's retrieving information, making inferences, or understanding vocabulary in context—so practice feels purposeful and productive. Self-assessment boxes on each page encourage your child to reflect on their answers and track their own progress, while a handy scoresheet at the back lets you both see improvements at a glance. Answers are provided in a separate answer booklet (sold separately), giving you the flexibility to mark work together or let your child check independently.

Sample page showing 'Drive-in to 1950s America' non-fiction text with comprehension questions
Example non-fiction text page with topic introduction and engaging historical content

Regular, focused practice with this workbook helps your child become familiar with the format and timing of SATs reading questions, reducing exam-day nerves and boosting their ability to tackle unfamiliar texts calmly. Because the book focuses exclusively on non-fiction, your child builds the stamina and strategies needed for this particular text type, making their revision time more efficient. The result is a calmer, better-prepared pupil who walks into the KS2 English Reading test knowing exactly what to expect and how to approach each question with confidence.

Sample comprehension page showing 'Movie Misery' text with film reel illustration and detailed reading passage
Engaging non-fiction passage with illustrations to support understanding and maintain interest

This workbook is ideal for any Year 6 pupil working towards the 2026 KS2 SATs, whether they're building confidence or aiming to sharpen existing skills. It sits perfectly alongside CGP's companion books covering fiction, poetry, and stretch challenges, so you can tailor practice to your child's needs. A reliable, well-structured resource that puts exam success within reach.

  • Four non-fiction texts with targeted comprehension questions covering all KS2 SATs Reading skills
  • Self-assessment boxes and progress scoresheet to help your child track improvement
  • Designed for Year 6 pupils preparing for the 2026 KS2 English SATs
