Key Stage 1 and Key Stage 2 (KS1 & KS2)

From Y1 to Y6, our children follow the 2014 National Curriculum. You can read or download the full National Curriculum here.

Each year group has a topic every half-term that helps to link learning across the curriculum. A list of our topics for 2021/22 can be accessed here.

An overview of how each subject is taught (as a Silsden Primary child progresses through KS1 and KS2) can be found below.
