well, sats that then!
it would appear that far from needed a "literacy hour" every day, all a child needs is 5 minutes when mummy remembers in order to pass at level 2a one’s KS1 SATs maths! And she didn’t even bother finishing all the questions as she got bored before the end 
I mentioned that if she was at school she would then need to do the "level 3" paper and she said "oooh, what’s that one like then mummy?" trouble is taht one is lots of telling teh time so I fibbed and said I didn’t ahve copy as time is a complete mystery to her! I’m happy knowing she’s well up there for her age, I already know she’s a genius really don’t I 
and it does make one feel pretty damned good about the whole HE thing to see how well she did with how little actual effort in "teaching" her.
I’ve offered her the English one if she fancies a go and she’s thinking about it but I have no intention of pushing that as she still doesn’t believe she can read (despite teh fact that she is rattling through yet another level of readers with little effort….) I suspect she’d do okay-ish on a good day and ***** awful on one of her not-so-good days (she’s always good with numbers, words seem to come and go)
