Upper School
The Upper School, Year 5 and Year 6, provides new opportunities for your child.
At the end of Year 6 children are assessed using the National Statutory Tests in maths, reading and grammar, as well as statutory teacher assessment in writing.
Each child has access to personalised online learning through our Google Classroom with added applications of Reading Plus, RM Easi Maths and (Maths) and Purple Mash (Foundation Subject Support).
Miss Malhi is the Head of Upper School. Should you have any queries please contact your child's classteacher, one of our support staff or Miss Malhi.
