Year 6 2025 - 2026

Year 6 | 2025–2026

Class Teacher: Mr Noblett

Welcome to Year 6

Welcome to Year 6! We are very much looking forward to working with you and your child during this important and exciting year.

Year 6 is a time of challenge, growth and achievement. We aim to provide a supportive, calm and engaging learning environment where pupils are encouraged to be curious, resilient and confident learners. We place strong emphasis on developing independence and preparing pupils well for the transition to secondary school, while continuing to nurture a love of learning.

Learning in Year 6

Pupils in Year 6 follow a broad, balanced and ambitious curriculum that builds on prior learning from across the school. Alongside English and mathematics, pupils continue to study a full range of subjects including science, history, geography, art, computing, music, physical education and PSHE.

Learning is carefully designed to develop pupils’ knowledge, confidence, independence and resilience, ensuring they leave Year 6 as well-rounded learners who are ready for the next stage of their education and for life beyond primary school.

Reading is highly valued in Year 6 and pupils are encouraged to read a wide range of texts to build vocabulary, deepen comprehension and develop a lifelong love of reading.
