Year 6

Welcome to Year 6, the culmination of all our children’s hard work, and their final year at Chilwell Croft Academy.  

Although it can be challenging in Year 6, we aim to give our children opportunities and experiences through a broad and balanced curriculum that will enable them to become the well-rounded members of society we want them to be.  

In Year 6, we pride ourselves on having high aspirations and helping our children become independent in their studies, their decisions and to become more aware of themselves as individuals.  

Revision for their SATs in May is important as it showcases how far the children have come however we will also continue valuable learning across the curriculum, including the history of the slave trade in Britain, and learning about the vast array of cultures in our city, languages spoken within our local school community to ensure our children have wide-ranging experience of the world.  

The opportunities in Year 6 are immense and can include being part of the Pupil Leadership Team, going on our brilliant residential and taking part in educational visits (including to The Houses of Parliament!) and partnering with Aston Villa Football Club, King Edward VI School and King Edward’s School Edgbaston.  

In Year 6, we will do our utmost to prepare our children for their transition to secondary school and prepare them for whatever lies ahead as future assets to society and the local community.
