Welcome to Year Two

Year Two is a wonderful year in which your child will grow and confidence and flourish as a result of many wonderful learning experiences. Here is some helpful information about life in year 2:

P.E.

Our PE days are Tuesday and Thursday.

Please ensure that jumpers are named.

Reading

Reading books are changed every Friday. Please sign the reading record to show us the book has been read, we expect your child to be reading at least 3 x a week. 

Equipment

Please ensure your child has a named water bottle in school every day. This must contain water and not juice.  Children should bring a healthy snack each day. No crisps, sweets or chocolate and please remember we are a nut free school so check labels of all snacks you send to school. We do have children and staff with nut allergies, so this is vital.

Website and Communication

Should you wish to see curriculum overviews, photographs and learning updates please see our class pages on the school website. These are updated regularly. If there is anything else you need to know, we will send a message to you so please ensure you have access to the Parentapps Connect app.

Messages for teachers

Doors open at 8.45am and are locked at 8.55 am. Should you arrive after this time, you must take your child to the main office to be signed in. Should you need to get a message to your child’s class teacher, please inform the staff on the door at drop off as teaching staff are required to remain in the classroom in the morning. If you need to meet with the teacher about an important issue, please arrange an appointment through the office staff.

Year 2 SATs are no longer statutory in the UK, though we do still carry out our own end of year assessments along with every other year group, to evaluate how well children are learning and retaining the information taught. They are an indicator, to both teachers and parents, of which areas each child excels in and which areas they require further support in.

 

 

Please see the curriculum map below which details the learning and experiences the children will have this year.
