Very in-depth for the age group needed. I like the idea of glossary terms at the back if they don't understand. Would recommend.

About the KS2 English Reading SAT Buster: Non-Fiction - Book 2 (for the 2027 tests)

If your Year 6 child is preparing for the KS2 English SATs in 2027, KS2 English Reading SAT Buster: Non-Fiction – Book 2 offers focused practice to build confidence with real-world texts. Designed for pupils aged 10–11, this workbook delivers four carefully chosen non-fiction passages alongside questions that mirror every skill tested in the official reading paper, so your child walks into the exam hall ready.

Four questions test vocabulary skills using synonyms, antonyms and definitions from a text about the Angel of the North
Children circle synonyms, tick meanings and write replacements to master vocabulary in context.

Each text is followed by a range of targeted comprehension questions covering fact retrieval, inference, vocabulary, and structure—exactly what the SATs demand. Self-assessment boxes on every page let your child track their own understanding, while the handy progress scoresheet gives you a clear snapshot of strengths and areas to revisit. Because this is Book 2, it builds on skills practised in Book 1 and pairs naturally with the companion Fiction and Poetry SAT Busters for complete coverage. Full answers are available in the answer booklet, sold separately, so you can check work together without guesswork.

Five questions test fact retrieval from a text about the Angel of the North, using multiple choice and short answer formats

By working through these authentic non-fiction passages—reports, biographies, explanations—your child gains fluency with the text types that appear most often in the KS2 reading test. Regular practice removes the fear of unfamiliar formats and builds stamina for longer passages under timed conditions. The self-assessment feature encourages independent learning, so pupils take ownership of their progress and arrive at exam day calm, prepared, and ready to demonstrate what they know. This workbook is published by CGP and fully aligned to the English National Curriculum for Key Stage 2.
