You’ll find out what your child will learn, how we structure their learning throughout the year and also their key development targets, skills progression, and behaviour expectations.
You’ll also discover a checklist of what your child needs to bring to school with them each day and lots of information on how we’ll communicate with you and all the useful apps you can use to support your child’s learning journey outside of school.
Year 5 Reading list
You will find below a list of AMAZING books. Recommended for Year 5 age children and each of a very high quality. If you read any of these at home, let your teacher know!
Year 5 Curriculum
At Parkside Primary School, our children in Year 5 are encouraged to take an active role in their own learning and to be ‘lifelong learners’, taking their learning beyond the school environment and be inspired about a brighter future. We encourage our children to become independent learners and be able to take active ownership of their next steps in learning, therefore, enabling them to be articulate about their own learning experiences and journey.
In Year 5, there is a strong emphasis on embedding the skills and knowledge learnt in lower Key Stage 2. We support the children to apply their knowledge in creative and increasingly complex ways in all areas of the curriculum. In all subject areas, we ensure the children are exposed to a wide range of genres that reflect the diversity of our school, in order for them to be immersed in a rich diet of vocabulary and grammar for them to use in all of their work.
