Year 6

Year 6 – Upper Key Stage 2

We are pleased to welcome you into your final year of primary school. Your class teachers are Ms McCauley in Kestrels and Mrs Khan in Falcons. We are lucky to have a dedicated and welcoming teaching support team (Mrs McDonnell, Ms Lohan and Miss Carroll) who offer both pastoral and academic support to ensure that all of our children reach their full potential.

In Year 6, we have high expectations of all learners and celebrate positive learning behaviours through our ‘Are you ready?’ reward system. Underpinning this are our school ‘Bee Rules’: Be Respectful, Be Kind, Be Safe, Be Inquisitive. We encourage our Year 6 students to be ambassadors of these and pride themselves in being role models for their peers both in and out of the classroom.

Our timetable consists of daily English, Maths and Reading sessions; as well as Science, Geography, History, P.E., Computing, R.E., Music, Art, Spanish, Ninja Maths and D&T.

In Year 6, not only do we support you through your statutory SATs examinations, but we prepare you with the life skills and knowledge to help you progress into your next stage of learning. We know that leaving primary and transitioning into secondary can be daunting, so we will support you through many activities and meetings including building relationships with local secondary schools, learning techniques for coping with changes and building self-confidence throughout the year.

We look forward to a fun-filled final year with you at Ingrow Primary School! If you have any questions please feel free to contact us and we will do our best to help.

Ms McCauley and Mrs Khan
