SATS
At the age of 14, children reach Key Stage 3 and take the SATS (Standard Assessment Tests). By now tests are getting serious, even if they’re merely designed to give parents and teachers an indication of how their children are progressing.
On this site, you’ll find free learning material and a guide to understanding what the tests consist of. To get deeper information, you’ll have to subscribe to the site. However, it's available free to most schools and is worth knowing about. For comprehensive revision help, visit BBC revisewise. GCSEs and A-levels
Of course, the stress teenagers undergo isn’t just about passing exams, it’s also about getting good grades. When you’re just two percent off an A grade, it can be upsetting. A sympathetic and extremely useful teen-revision friendly site is Schoolsnet.
