Year 5
Welcome to Year 5 at Elsley Primary School, a year of significant growth and preparation for the final stage of primary education. Pupils are introduced to more complex concepts in Maths, English, and Science, and are encouraged to think more critically and creatively across all subjects. This year, we also place a greater emphasis on leadership and responsibility, with opportunities for pupils to take on roles within the school community. Year 5 is about fostering independence, deepening understanding, and preparing each child for the exciting challenges of Year 6.
