FreshGrad (KS2) Plus: School Readiness & Preparation
Close academic gaps, prepare for assessments, and transition smoothly to new schools – in a nurturing, project-based environment
Inspiring Young Minds, Every Day
At Learning Fresh, our Key Stage 2 (KS2) Programme is designed for homeschoolers and short-term students who need a structured yet creative environment to close academic gaps and prepare for future school transitions.
We combine the Cambridge Primary curriculum with the Reggio Emilia approach, ensuring students not only achieve academic mastery but also develop curiosity, critical thinking, and a love for learning.
Students work on core subjects—English, Mathematics, and Science—while also engaging in supplementary studies such as History, Geography, Design & Technology, and the Arts. This well-rounded approach helps children strengthen both their academic foundation and creative problem-solving abilities.
With small groups (maximum 10 students per class), we provide individualized support, helping each child build confidence, meet school assessment requirements, and smoothly transition to their next learning journey.
Who Is This Programme For?
- Homeschoolers preparing for transition
- Short-term students needing reinforcement
- Children facing placement interviews or school entry tests
- Parents seeking low-ratio, high-impact learning
Programme Structure
Our KS2 program mirrors a normal school day while maintaining the flexibility and personalization that homeschoolers and short-term students need. Each child follows a tailored learning plan aligned with the Cambridge Primary framework,enhanced by Reggio Emilia-inspired project work that connects learning to real-world experiences.
Classes are divided into two groups to ensure age-appropriate pacing and attention:
🌱 Lower KS2 (Ages 7–9)
Lower KS2 focuses on building strong foundations in literacy, numeracy, and inquiry-based learning. Students work on core subjects (English, Math, Science) while engaging in hands-on projects that nurture creativity and collaboration.
We also introduce supplementary subjects—History, Geography, Arts, and Design & Technology—through interactive lessons that spark curiosity.
Outcomes:
- Improved reading comprehension and writing fluency
- Strong math concepts and problem-solving strategies
- Enhanced curiosity through exploratory subjects
- Confidence in class participation and communication
🌳 Upper KS2 (Ages 9–11)
Upper KS2 prepares students for secondary school entry, focusing on academic consolidation, critical thinking, and independent learning skills. Lessons are inquiry-led but also targeted to close any learning gaps and build confidence for school assessments and interviews.
