I've been using Exam Ninja books for around five years to help my nine-year-old daughter with her schooling. We buy a set for each year and my daughter works her way through them, a little each day, with my assistance. These are an excellent resource for boosting a child's learning journey and supporting the school curriculum.

About the KS2 Problem Solving Workbook 3 (Ages 7-11)

KS2 Problem Solving Workbook 3 (Ages 7-11) gives Year 5 and Year 6 pupils the practice they need to tackle tricky maths problems with confidence. Published by Schofield and Sims, this workbook transforms abstract topics—fractions, decimals, percentages, ratio, time, and geometry—into real-life scenarios that make sense, from working out shopping totals to keeping score in games. If your child struggles to see how maths fits into everyday life, this workbook bridges that gap and sharpens problem-solving skills along the way.

Sample page showing a Computer Fair pricing exercise with calculations for discounts and totals
Real-world shopping scenarios help pupils apply percentages, decimals, and mental maths to everyday problems

Each page presents graded activities that build step by step, covering rotation of shapes, lines of symmetry, tessellation, percentages, fractions, decimal numbers, time problems, and ratio. The workbook is carefully aligned to the English National Curriculum for Key Stage 2, so you can be sure your child is practising exactly what they need for school assessments. Clear instructions and varied question types keep pupils engaged, while the progression from simpler to more challenging problems builds confidence without overwhelming them.

Olympics-themed problem-solving page featuring medal tables, averages, and time calculations
Engaging themes like the Olympics make problem-solving fun while practising averages, data handling, and time conversions

Your child will move from guessing to understanding, learning to spot which operation to use and how to check their working. Regular practice with these real-world problems means they'll arrive at SATs or end-of-year tests ready to tackle any question, not just the ones they've memorised. The workbook is a physical product, shipped to your door, so your child can work at their own pace, highlight tricky areas, and refer back whenever they need a refresher.

This workbook suits any Year 5 or Year 6 pupil who needs extra problem-solving practice or wants to build fluency across fractions, decimals, ratio, and geometry. Whether you're supporting homework, preparing for assessments, or simply reinforcing school learning, it offers structured, curriculum-aligned activities that deliver results without fuss.

  • Covers fractions, decimals, percentages, ratio, time, geometry, and symmetry with real-life contexts
  • Graded activities progress from simple to more complex, building confidence at every stage
  • Aligned to the English National Curriculum for Key Stage 2 (Years 5 and 6)
  • Published by Schofield and Sims, a trusted name in UK primary education resources
  • Physical workbook format—no screens, just focused practice that fits into any revision routine
