Year 3

Mrs Porter, Miss Robson, Miss Taylor, Mrs Stokoe, Miss Charlton
Year Three (Y3) is the first of four years children spend in Key Stage Two (KS2).
They follow the Y3 or lower KS2 programmes of study from the Primary Curriculum published September 2014. Children are taught key subjects through specific units of work for example themes and projects such as Take One Picture, STAR WARS during STEM fortnight, Pandora and the Greeks.
Children can be taught by different teachers. For example, in Music, Spanish and PE they work with a number of specialist coaches in tennis and cricket. They have a weekly swimming lesson one morning each week during the summer term.
Children also have access to an exciting range of extra-curricular clubs such as Choir, Football and Dance.
For further information about Y3 please refer to Y3 Routines and Procedures and Curriculum Maps.
