Information about Year 5
Our Learning
The Upper Key Stage 2 curriculum is based on a 2 year rolling programme of study. The document below gives an overview of the main areas of learning and curriculum objectives for the 2022 2023 academic year which is our Cycle B.
We no longer break these down into weekly planning documents, as there will be times when we need to be more flexible with our timetabling to allow for longer blocks of learning in some subjects, and for enrichment opportunities which help to ensure a deeper level of learning.
The staff will plan for the term ensuring that they cover the key skills and knowledge objectives set out in the cycle b overview document below.
