Welcome to Year 2

Year 2 marks the end of Key Stage 1. Throughout the year we will focus on securing reading fluency, accuracy and comprehension skills, plus cursive handwriting, spellings and problem-solving within maths. Children will engage in a variety of useful Hinterland experiences over the year, such as a visit to the seaside, an art gallery and a place of worship.
