What do we learn in Year 1/2?

For Year 1 the school day may be a little more structured than it was in Reception and the children will get used to sitting at a table for a little longer than they are used to, but they will still also be learning in a variety of ways; while moving, exploring outdoors, in groups, on the carpet or walking around the school!

Year 1 carry out the Phonics Screening Check. This is a national check and is nothing to worry about as your child has been learning phonics all year; they are well-practiced having experienced the format through regular half-termly assessment.

The check is carried out by Ms. Hannan.  Please get in touch if you have any questions and Ms. Hannan will be only too happy to help.

Year 2 is the last year of Key Stage 1. There is a continued focus on phonics, while in maths your child will be introduced to fractions.

Mrs. Bullman is very kind. I like Year 2 because the work is not too easy and not too hard.
