Year 6 Spring Term Arithmetic – 19 Lessons and Assessment

Structured Spring Term pack covering key Year 6 arithmetic strands, with mixed-practice lessons and an end-of-term assessment

Complete Year 6 Spring Term Arithmetic Programme
This pack provides a fully sequenced, term-long set of 19 short lessons plus an end-of-term assessment, covering key Year 6 arithmetic strands. Lessons are carefully designed to support pupils’ progression and KS2 SATs preparation.

By following a structured programme such as Boost Arithmetic, pupils can systematically develop fluency, accuracy, and confidence across the main arithmetic topics. The pack includes discrete skill lessons, mixed-practice lessons, and an end-of-term assessment to consolidate learning. A question-level analysis (QLA) tool is included to track progress, identify gaps, and support targeted intervention where needed.
