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 Year 1 Phonics 10-Minute Tests (Ages 5-6)

The Year 1 Phonics 10-Minute Tests (Ages 5-6) from Scholastic gives your child authentic practice for the National Phonics Screening Check without the pressure of a full-length session. Each of the ten mini checks mirrors the real test format—same question types, same mark scheme—but wraps up in around ten minutes, so you can fit them into any part of the day. Whether your Year 1 pupil needs a confidence boost before the official check or you want to identify tricky phonics patterns early, this book delivers focused, bite-sized rehearsal that feels manageable for young learners.

Introduction page explaining how to use the book and complete the phonics checks — Clear instructions guide parents through the ten mini checks and flexible timing approach

Inside you will find everything you need to mark each check and spot where extra practice will help. Mark schemes are included so you can score responses quickly, then turn your attention to the additional phonics games and activities scattered throughout the book. These fun extensions keep your child engaged between tests and reinforce the sounds they have just tackled, turning revision into an active, varied routine rather than a one-way paper chase. The flexible structure means you can schedule a mini check whenever suits your family—after school, at the weekend, or during half-term—without needing a strict timetable.

Sample phonics check page showing words with accompanying cartoon illustrations — Child-friendly layout with engaging characters makes each check feel less intimidating

By the time your child reaches the official Phonics Screening Check, they will recognise the question format, understand how to decode unfamiliar words aloud, and feel calmer under test conditions. The book aligns with the English National Curriculum expectations for Year 1 phonics, covering the full range of sounds and patterns assessed in the national check. Because every test is brand-new content, this title complements—rather than repeats—other books in Scholastic's 10-Minute Tests series, giving you fresh material to support steady progress throughout the year.

This printed practice book is ideal for parents who want a straightforward, proven way to prepare their five- or six-year-old for the Phonics Screening Check. It takes the mystery out of the official assessment, builds decoding confidence one short test at a time, and turns phonics revision into a positive, game-filled experience that fits around busy family life.

Ten mini Phonics Checks that match the National Phonics Screening Check format and mark scheme
Each test designed to take around ten minutes, with flexible timing to suit your child's pace
Phonics games and activities included to keep learning varied and engaging between checks
Mark schemes provided so you can quickly identify strengths and areas for extra practice
Suitable for Year 1 pupils (ages 5–6) preparing for the official screening check
