Keystage 2

The smooth transition from Key Stage 1 to Key Stage 2 occurs in Year 3. As the children grow and develop through to Year 6, they start experiencing more specialist teachers in preparation for Key Stage 3, the beginning of Secondary Education.

In Year 6, the children mark their transition through to Secondary Schooling with their second set of external SATs. For the previous three years, they are being well prepared for this next stage as they interact and develop not just with their Class Teachers but also with specialist PE, Music, Art, ICT and French teachers.

There are many opportunities for the children to learn about their new home country as we have Korean Days in the autumn term where we bring in many cultural exhibitions (both static and live!) and have many field visits to museums, cultural sites and local services (such as the fire station). As part of the children’s life in Korea we also teach basic Korean language to newcomers and more advanced Korean to those who speak it as a heritage language.

Key Stage 2 takes your child through the final years of primary school life. We hope they learn and develop with enthusiasm, excitement and knowledge that there is still more our there that they want to learn about as they move on to the first part of the Secondary education in Year 7.
