What should a Year 1 child be able to do?

The 2014 National Curriculum outlines the expected standards that children should reach by the end of each year in primary school. These are outlined below.

  • Year 1 Must Do Maths
  • Year 1 Meeting Expectations English
  • Year 1 Must Do Spellings

 PE

There will be two hour PE lessons every week as well as a daily fitness session. At times,  there may well be additional sessions when external coaches are in school. Children are advised to bring in a PE kit on a Monday morning and to leave it in school for a half – term. The kit will then be returned home for cleaning. If you would prefer to wash it more regularly then please inform staff, who will send the kit home as and when requested by parents.

Please note no jewellery is allowed to be worn during PE for safety reasons and will need to be removed during PE and sporting activities. 

PE Long Term Plan 2021-2022

Homework

At VLA, we operate an effective and consistent whole school approach to homework. Every child, from Year 1 – Year 6 is issued with their very own VLA Homework Book. Our Homework book will also be used as a reading diary and should be brought into school every day. The homework children receive in school will vary depending on the year group they are in.
