Find those Learning Gaps at the start of Year 6
Our Mathematics Baseline Assessment, created for end of Year 5 or start of Year 6, identifies key gaps and help you to prioritise future actions. It uses questions from the 2019 SATs papers, focusing only on the Year 3, Year 4, and Year 5 curriculum.
Our Detailed Analysis aggregates the assessment data by topics or cohorts rather than individual answers. This helps identify patterns that can drive lesson plans throughout Year 6.
Our Individual Pupil Profiles – included within your analysis – give you a clear overview of how each child performed and help in identifying specific areas for extra support.
No material due to be covered in Year 6 is included in the assessment.
“Thankyou! We have found the DAISI reports very useful – not only for identifying weakness in particular groups in the cohort – but to think about changes we might need to make to Year 6 Teaching for next year.”

How does it work?
Our bespoke paper is delivered to you as a PDF and arrives ready made for photocopying and use in the classroom saving you valuable time. It also comes with its own mark scheme giving a clear indication of where each question has been taken from in the original paper.
Teachers will need to mark each paper and input the results in our spreadsheet along with names and UPNs of every student. You will receive full instructions with your order acknowledgement.
- 0 = Question attempted, no marks.
- 1 = Question attempted, 1 mark.
- 2 or 3 = Question attempted, 2-3 marks.
- N = Question Not Attempted.
Once this is completed, send us the results to us securely and we will create your forensic analysis. We aim to send back your reports via secure email within 3 working days from provision of data.

What have Schools Said about DAISI QLA?
“Enormous thanks for the QLAs. I’m really pleased with them. My Y6 teachers can now focus their teaching on specific areas during the spring and early summer to give the children the best possible chance of achieving their potential in the SATs.”
Headteacher, Grangehurst Primary School, Coventry
“The team at DAISI have provided us with the in-depth information required to really drill down and discover what needs to be done to improve mathematics outcomes. Not only has their diagnostic information enabled us to identify specific strengths and weaknesses, it has also enabled us to flag up key pupil cohort achievement. As a result, leaders are adapting the taught curriculum to ensure any gaps in knowledge are being effectively addressed.“
Senior School Advisor – School Effectiveness, Wirral Council
“These tools have supported us to enable class teachers, subject leaders, senior leaders and governors to accurately evaluate their areas of responsibility and plan for school improvements over the coming 12 months.”
Nottingham Schools Trust
“In regards to the QLA as we have such a large cohort – it is good to look for areas/types of questions where children have struggled and we need to focus on further in the future. The QLA for each individual child is useful when looking at specific children within groups SEN, FSM, PP looking particularly at their individual progress in each subject.”
Headteacher, Fernwood Primary School, Nottingham
“Fantastic and so simple to use. In addition, it would have taken us an inordinate length of time to produce anything quite like it. Thank you! In Ofsted speak Outstanding Best Value!!!”
Broadway Junior School, Sunderland
