What is KS2?
Key Stage 2 (KS2) covers children in Year 3 through Year 6 (ages 7–11). This is a period of increasing independence and deeper learning, culminating in SATs assessments at the end of Year 6.
Homework at KS2 helps consolidate classroom learning, develops study skills, and prepares children for secondary school.
