Phase 2

Phase 2 is the middle phase of the school for pupils in years 5 to 8. Pupils in Phase 2 will continue to develop their skills ensuring an effective transition from the primary to the traditional secondary stages. This is also the important phase where we welcome those pupils joining the school for their secondary education in Year 7.

During years 5 and 6, pupils study the following subjects:

Welsh, English, Mathematics, Science, Technology, Information Technology, Religious Studies, Geography, French, History, Physical Education, Personal and Social Education, Art and Music. Pupils in Years 5 and 6 are taught in the primary sector by class teachers as well as by secondary specialists to enrich their experiences and ensure that they have access to all the facilities of Henry Richard School. They share lunchtime and playtimes with pupils in Phase 1.

During years 7 and 8, pupils study the following subjects:

Welsh, English, Maths, Science, Finnish, Technology, Food and Nutrition, Information Technology, Religious Studies, Geography, History, Physical Education, Personal and Social Education, Art, Music, Drama and Theme. The Years 7 and 8 Curriculum is broad and balanced to prepare them for making important choices at the end of year 8.
