Upper Key Stage 2

As children move through Key Stage  they follow a similar approach to the Primary curriculum. They continue to securely develop their English and Mathematics skills in order to support their learning across the wider curriculum.

  • Literacy is taught through a discrete session each day and children have more opportunities to apply their skills across the curriculum.
  • Guided sessions provide access to a range of texts and give time to explore fiction and non fiction.
  • Literacy is taught through well planned units that clearly identify the next step in reading and writing that the children and teacher will focus on for two or three weeks.
  • Challenge in the mathematics curriculum continues to require greater mathematical thinking
  • Children select from a range of approaches to calculations and use their skills in more complex problem solving activities.
  • The rest of the subjects are covered using our consistent whole school thematic approach. The organisation of these is the same as in Lower Key Stage 2.
