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

KS2 English Reading SAT Buster: Poetry – Book 1 (for the 2026 tests) takes the worry out of poetry comprehension for your Year 6 child (ages 10–11). This workbook delivers targeted practice across six carefully chosen poems, each paired with exam-style questions that mirror the exact skills tested in the KS2 SATs Reading paper. Self-assessment boxes and a progress scoresheet let your child see improvement at a glance, building the steady confidence they need when May arrives.

Every poem is followed by retrieval, inference and language questions that reflect real SAT formats, so your child knows what to expect and how to answer clearly. The self-assessment tools mean they can track strengths and spot gaps independently, and the scoresheet gives you both a simple way to celebrate progress. Answers are available in a separate answer booklet, giving you full marking support to check work together and correct misunderstandings quickly.

By the time your child finishes this workbook, they will approach poetry passages with calm, method and precision. Each completed poem reinforces understanding of language, structure and meaning – the three pillars of the KS2 English Reading SATs. The result is a pupil who can decode unfamiliar verse under timed pressure, retrieve evidence accurately and explain poetic techniques clearly. CGP's format aligns with National Curriculum outcomes and SAT marking criteria, so you can trust that every page directly supports exam readiness.

Inference questions encourage deeper thinking and help pupils explain textual clues in their own words

This workbook suits Year 6 pupils who need regular, manageable poetry practice without the overwhelm of a full revision guide. Whether your child is consolidating classroom learning or tackling poetry for the first time, the clear layout and focused question sets make independent study straightforward. CGP's SAT Buster series is trusted across UK primary schools, and this Poetry Book 1 is available now for the 2026 test cycle.

  • Six complete poems with exam-style comprehension questions covering retrieval, inference and language skills
