During this year, the children will focus on consolidating their knowledge and skills in preparation for the transition to secondary school. They will also be preparing for the SATs (Standard Assessment Tests).
Year 6 pupils will take part in SATs, which are national assessments in English and maths designed to measure their attainment levels.
English
Pupils will develop strong reading comprehension and writing skills, including grammar, punctuation, and vocabulary. They will also improve their communication through speaking and listening activities.
Maths
Children will focus on mastering multiplication and division facts (including times tables up to 12 × 12), understanding fractions, decimals, and percentages, and applying their mathematical knowledge to solve problems.
PE Days
PE takes place every Tuesday. In addition, during alternate half terms—starting with Autumn 2—PE will also be on Thursdays.
Homework
- Spellings: Weekly spellings will be sent out on Mondays and should be completed in preparation for a test the following Monday.
- Reading Books: Children may change their reading books once completed. We will check reading records weekly to ensure children are reading at home and school at least four times a week.
- Maths: Children should regularly access Times Tables Rock Stars (TTRS):
