Primary Education KS2 (Ages 8-11)
The program
We offer a published programme for ages 8-11 that is broad and balanced covering the subjects from the national curriculum including English, Math, History, Geography, Science, Art, RE and Computer Skills.
Our unique classroom management encourages independent, well organised learning behaviours and a positive learning ethos. We aim to develop not only academic skills but also confidence and enthusiasm.
There is a strong focus on both English & Maths as these are seen as gateway subjects for much of our students’ future learning. The aim is that all students will have a secure understanding of both subjects.
Key Math Skills
- Knowing all your times tables up to 12×12
- Being able to add, subtract, divide & multiply numbers up to the thousands confidently.
- Being able to read and write numbers up to 10,000,000.
- Knowing all the sums for the numbers up to 10.
- Knowing all the combinations of subtractions from 20 down.
- Using mental maths strategies such as rounding numbers to the nearest 10 or 100 & making good estimations
Practice makes perfect and maths needs to be repeated daily to build fluency.
For example just doing 10 sums a day will really help build that fluency and confidence with numbers.
Key English Skills
- Reading a page of a story and being able to answer some questions about it.
- Retelling a story in their own words without changing the overall meaning.
