“The curriculum presented in Year 2 reflects the increased ability of the children, both academically and socially,” writes the Head of Lower School Helen Haslem on their website. 

“It sees the completion of the basic skills in literacy and numeracy in Key Stage 1. Individual strengths and talents begin to emerge, which you will undoubtedly begin to see.”

“The children are asked to become more responsible in Year 2; this may start with the children recording their own homework in their diaries,” Haslem continues. “This increasing independence allows for a smooth transition to the Prep School.”

Thomas’s Battersea is located in the affluent London suburb of Kensington and caters not only to the Royal Family but to England’s high society.
