Pupils in year 1 and 2 will be working on Key Stage 1 of the National Curriculum and those in years 3, 4, 5 and 6 will continue through Key Stage 2. The school provides a broad and well balanced curriculum in line with the requirements of the National Curriculum and develops the work of individual children according to their age and ability.
