Year 6 Worksheets and Games: Free Printables for Ages 10 to 11
Year 6 is the last year of primary school in England. Children are aged 10 to 11, they sit the Key Stage 2 national curriculum tests (SATs) in May, and they get ready to move up to secondary school. This page explains what Year 6 covers in maths, English and science, then gives you free printable worksheets and games for each topic, all made by Jaques of London.
What children learn in Year 6
This follows the National Curriculum for England. Your school may teach topics in a different order.
Maths
Year 6 maths builds on fractions, decimals and percentages, adds ratio and proportion, and introduces simple algebra. Children work with numbers up to 10,000,000, use formal methods such as long multiplication and long division, find the area of triangles and parallelograms and the volume of cuboids, work out the mean average, read pie charts and use all four quadrants of a coordinate grid.

Year 6 grammar and punctuation revisits relative clauses and modal verbs and adds active and passive voice, formal and informal language, linking words that join ideas across paragraphs, and punctuation such as colons, semi-colons, hyphens and bullet points. Children also plan and write persuasive, narrative and non-fiction pieces.

The Year 6 science programme covers evolution and inheritance, how living things adapt and are classified, how the circulatory system works, how light travels and how electrical circuits work.

Many Year 6 children also think about money, online safety, friendships and what secondary school will be like. The life skills sheets below help children talk about all of this with a grown-up.
