Welcome to Year 2

In this year we will building on the children's developing indepenance as learners so that by the end of the year, their transition from Key Stage 1 to Key Stage 2 is as smooth as possible.

We hope your children will enjoy the various activities and learning throughout the year. If you have any questions about how we work in Year 2 or have anything that you would like talk about then please feel free to drop in and see us.

Our Learning

We have created a curriculum overview which gives you information about the core knowledge that your child will be learning in each subject. These will be published each half-term and can be downloaded below. 

If you would like advice about the work that your child is completing, you can contact their teacher. Please only email during the term time, working week. Teachers will respond to you within 3 working days of the email being sent, unless exceptional circumstances prevent this. In  this case, another member of staff will respond to you. 

Urgent messages (e.g change to collection arrangements) should be sent via the office by phone or by emailing  info@sendcofe.co.uk

Please continue to let the office know of absence or illness in the usual way.
