Years 3 to 6

Years 3 to 6 represent a pivotal stage in Prep School, where pupils build on their foundations and begin to develop greater independence, responsibility and academic depth. At The Webber Independent School, we provide a structured yet inspiring environment that prepares children for future success.

Learning becomes more specialist-led, while still maintaining a personalised approach that ensures every child is challenged and supported appropriately.

A Broad and Balanced Curriculum

Pupils study a wide range of subjects, including:

  • English and Mathematics
  • Science
  • Humanities (History and Geography)
  • Modern Foreign Languages, including French and Spanish
  • Computing and Digital Literacy
  • Music, Art and Drama
  • Physical Education and Games

This broad curriculum helps pupils develop academic strength alongside creativity, communication and critical thinking skills.

Specialist Teaching and Opportunities

In Years 3 to 6, pupils benefit from subject specialist teaching that deepens knowledge and builds confidence in each discipline. Enrichment is a key part of school life and includes:

  • Residential trips and outdoor education experiences
  • Educational workshops and visiting speakers
  • Competitive sport and team activities
  • A wide range of extra-curricular clubs and activities

With over 50 enrichment opportunities available, pupils are encouraged to explore interests, develop talents and build leadership skills.

Developing Independence and Resilience

As pupils move through Key Stage 2, they are encouraged to take greater ownership of their learning. They develop organisational skills, resilience and a strong sense of responsibility, preparing them for the transition to Senior School.

Pastoral care remains central, ensuring every child feels supported, valued and confident throughout their journey.

Preparing for the Future

By the end of Year 6, pupils are confident, capable and well-prepared for the next stage of their education. They leave Prep School with strong academic foundations, a love of learning and the personal qualities needed to thrive in Senior School and beyond.
