Lower Key Stage 2 is the term for the two years of schooling normally known as Year 3 and Year 4, when pupils are aged between 7 and 9. It's the first half of Key Stage 2.

The Lower Key Stage 2 Phase Leader is Miss Coleman

In our Lower Key Stage 2 (LKS2) Phase we have three classes:

• Year 3 - Robot Class - Miss Hargreaves
• Year 3/ 4 - Nothing to See Here Class - Miss Coleman
• Year 4 - Flits Class - Mrs Lightowler

Lower Key Stage 2 Curriculum

Children will spend two years in Lower Key Stage 2 - Year 3 and Year 4. During this time they will study many different subjects including: English, Maths, Religion, Science, Computing, Geography, History, PE, Art, Design and Technology, PSHE, Music, French and RSHE. The National Curriculum is taught through a mixture of discrete subject lessons as well as cross-curricular lessons. 

Links are made between subjects and are then grouped into topics which the children study. The topics are planned on a rolling programme over two years. Therefore, all of LKS2 work on the same topic at the same time. Topics are planned as a LKS2 phase and teachers liaise very closely to ensure continuity across all classes.

Learning is taught over a two-year cycle.  Children in LKS2 will cover all the requirements of the National Curriculum over the two years that they spend in LKS2.
