Welcome to Springwood Junior Academy’s Year 6 website page.
We always take pride in ourselves, following our school’s core values and working hard to be the best version of ourselves.
The core values of our school feed through every decision made.
TEAMWORK > RESILIENCE > INDEPENDENCE > COURAGE > KINDNESS.
At Springwood, we know the TRICK to becoming confident, capable adults is to develop strong teamwork, resilience, independence, courage and kindness from an early age.
Year 6, being the final year in Primary School, is a very important year, where we take our learning to the next level, undergo statutory assessment, and prepare for our transition to Year 7…all whilst making amazing memories and building solid friendships.
Our Weekly Expectations: we must read at least 4 times a week adding to our reading bookmark challenge each half term; we have spelling rules to learn each week for a spelling test on Friday; and a Maths Facts test on Fridays too.
Each year, our children undergo statutory assessments (SATs) in May, and we have to follow a rigorous and official timetable. The children will be tested on their Spelling, Punctuation and Grammar (SPaG), Reading and Maths during this week. Writing is an ongoing assessment throughout the year, with judgements being made by June, and pieces of work are collected to form a portfolio of evidence. Usually, children are informed of their results in July.
