Years 3 and 4 are the first two years in Key Stage Two and form Lower Key Stage Two. The children's education is planned using the National Curriculum via our Creative Curriculum. We use cross-curricular projects in which subjects overlap to reinforce and compliment each other. Each project is planned carefully to meet the needs of the child. We aim to develop knowledge, concepts, skills and attitudes necessary for the child's whole development and embrace 'Learning Without Limits'.

Reading is taught in many different ways: weekly guided reading (group discussions based around a text), shared reading (quality whole class texts) and reading across the curriculum. The focus across Key Stage 2 is on children's comprehension skills and how well they understand what they have read. You can support your child at home by hearing them read aloud at least 5 times a week (even if they are a fluent reader!) and asking them questions about what they have read.
