If you've already had a look for some Kent Test practice books online or in a book shop then you will have seen that there are many, many books available. There are 10-minute tests, quick tests, practice tests, practice papers, books for GL tests, books for CEM tests and books for different age groups, and that's before we consider whether an English book or a comprehension book would be better; should we focus on maths word problems, mental arithmetic or KS2 maths revision? It's a little confusing for many parents, so I have done the research for you...

 

The books that I recommend have been carefully selected to offer short bursts of practice in the question-types that pupils should expect to be asked during the Kent Test. Initially, timing is less important than familiarity with the question-types but once we begin to consider pace as well, then these books also provide a good guide to our target speed for answering Kent Test questions. 

​

At the start of my Kent Test Preparation work each year, I will provide my pupils' parents with details of the practice material that I suggest my pupils use at home, in support of the Kent Test work that we complete during our sessions. Every Sunnydene Kent Test pupil will be given a bag, with a Sunnydene Tutoring Kent Test folder', to keep everything together  - and easy to find for our weekly sessions.
