Diagnostic Assessment | Shape | Year 6

Assess your Year 6 pupils’ understanding of shape using these pre and post topic diagnostic tests.

Diagnostic assessments can be used to diagnose specific misconceptions and learning gaps before starting a block of work or after completing a block.

Use the pre-topic diagnostic assessment before teaching the Year 6 shape block of work to gain a baseline understanding of your pupils’ knowledge.

Post-topic diagnostic assessments can be used at the end of the shape block to identify your pupils’ progress.

Each assessment contains 25 multiple choice questions. Answers are designed by maths specialists to identify the correct answer for each question and explain the common error or misconception covered by the distractor answer.

Teachers tell us that they find it extremely valuable to assess prior knowledge before teaching a topic so they can better adapt their teaching to the needs of their class.
