Effective intervention for KS2 and SATs preparation

Our gap-analysis platform uses question-level data from formative and summative assessments to provide detailed insights into your students’ learning gaps and supports targeted interventions in KS2 Maths, English and Science.

Our assessments are aligned to SATs, White Rose Maths, PUMA and PIRA to build familiarity between pupils, the assessment questions within elastik and end of year exams.

Jim’s story

The background

Jim’s school uses multiple assessments to evaluate the progress of their students. But their assessments only provide attainment data; a top-level guide to their performance which, in some instances, is provided a long time after the assessment has taken place. It also takes a huge amount of every teacher’s time to analyse the data and gather meaningful insights. Jim worries that some students will fall through the cracks because any support they can offer is untailored, generic and mistimed.

Jim’s solution

By using Elastik’s gap analysis tool, teachers can focus on providing effective and immediate interventions to students.  Once assessments have been completed in platform, teachers can immediately see if a student, cohort or class is struggling with a particular concept and can teach to the gap. Lower abilities and higher achievers can all benefit as gaps in learning are identified right down to question level. Teaching is targeted and helps all students achieve their potental.
