KS1 Assessment Preparation Tutor: One-to-One Online KS1 Tuition
Work with a specialist KS1 Assessment Preparation tutor for one-to-one lessons covering the Phonics Screening Check and general assessment readiness. Live online tutoring nationwide across the UK, matched to the England National Curriculum.
Assessment at KS1 looks different from later school years: statutory KS1 SATs were removed from 2023, but the Phonics Screening Check in Year 1 remains a national statutory assessment, and many schools still use their own optional tests or ongoing teacher assessment in Year 2. KS1 assessment preparation from Zamal Academics helps your child build genuine confidence with whichever of these their school actually uses — without unnecessary pressure at this age.
Our tutors work one-to-one with children in Year 1 and Year 2, building calm, genuine confidence around assessment through low-pressure, age-appropriate practice, alongside your child's own school's scheme of work for Key Stage 1.
