Year 2 Curriculum Map
Learning expectations of your child:
Framework
Your child's learning has been mapped on a Year 2 Framework document. The document shows the key objectives that will be covered and which your child should have mastered to be Age Appropriate in each subject by the end of the academic year.
End Points
The Key objectives for each subject area which we would be supporting all children to have mastered are mapped out on a Year 2 End Points document. These are the key objectives that we feel a child needs to have mastered to move onto the next years curriculum for each subject.
End of Year Learning Outcomes:
The following guide gives examples of learning that we would typically expect a child in Year 2 to demonstrate if they are achieving at an age appropriate level by the end of the year.
We hope that you will find the guide useful and that it will enable you to understand some of the learning that a child who is working at an age appropriate level may be able to complete.
Assessing our Curriculum:
The following guide gives some information on the assessments which will be reported home in Year 2.

Our class names this year are...
Each of our classes is named after a world famous STEM hero. We are learning about this hero throughout the year. We had the portraits below commissioned (see artist website here) and you will find these, along with our learning about our hero, in our Rainbow Room. Please ask us about our hero and why they are so special.
Albert Einstein
"Little Albert grew up in Germany, where it took him four years to formulate his first word. He was fascinated by how objects worked and, although he didn’t love school, he loved physics and math books. His brilliant mind contemplated space and time, and he eventually came up with the theory of relativity. He shared his knowledge with the rest of the world, becoming the most original mind of the twentieth century."
Little People, Big Dreams by Maria Isabel Sánchez Vegara
Marie Curie
"When Marie was young, she was unable to go to college because she was a woman. But when she was older, her scientific work was respected around the world. Her discoveries of radium and polonium dramatically helped in the fight against cancer, and she went on to win the Nobel Prize for Physics!"
