School Life
Upper School ages 7 to 11
Upper School (Key Stage 2, ages 7-11)
Pupils in Years 3 to 6 attend the Upper School.
For the first year, children are taught mainly by their class teacher in their form rooms in a self-contained building, although they are introduced to some academic and practical subjects in specialist rooms in other parts of Upper School.
Children in Years 4 – 6 are located in the rest of the Upper School buildings and are taught by subject teachers or specialists.
The curriculum is designed to give a good academic grounding for a successful future education, and in particular to prepare pupils for entrance examinations to senior independent schools at the age of 11+.
The core subjects are English, Mathematics and Science.
The school timetable also includes Art and Design (including Food Technology & Textiles), French, History, Geography, Information Communications Technology, Music, Religious Education, Physical Education and Games.
A primary Latin course is also introduced during Upper School, and pupils are prepared for verbal and non-verbal reasoning tests.
In order to promote good study habits, prep (homework) continues to be set every school day.
