Description
Our Topic lessons offer a rich exploration of history, geography, and social studies, tailored for pupils in Key Stage 2. Our curriculum is designed to ignite curiosity about the world and its diverse cultures, past and present. In history, students delve into significant events and figures, developing an understanding of chronology and the impact of historical developments on modern society. Geography lessons foster an appreciation for the planet’s physical and human landscapes, teaching essential skills in map reading, environmental awareness, and global interconnectivity. Through engaging projects and interactive activities, students also examine societal structures and cultural practices, promoting empathy and critical thinking. Our KS2 Humanities program aims to build a strong foundation of knowledge and skills, encouraging students to become informed, thoughtful, and active global citizens.
Assessment
Assessments are an integral part of our online topic programme. Teacher assessments occur continuously during LIVE TAUGHT lessons and include the marking of coursework, assignments, and summative tests to evaluate a student’s grasp on the subject matter effectively.
Homework
To reinforce classroom learning, homework is assigned at the end of each half-term. These assignments are typically in the form of a project that is linked to our current theme, adding a practical dimension to our online topic classes for primary school students.
Reporting
Parents have round-the-clock access to all of their children’s work, assignments, and grades. We also hold three parent consultations per year—one each term—to discuss the child’s progress, address any concerns, and outline future learning goals.
