Hello everyone, my name is Mr Hayward, and I am the Year 5 class teacher. This year, I will be working alongside Mrs Akhtar. We are looking forward to supporting the children throughout the Autumn Term of Year 5 and seeing their knowledge and skills grow throughout this year. 

In Year 5, your child is expected to demonstrate increased independence in all areas of the curriculum. They need to become an excellent communicator, who is able to talk about his/her learning and can explain the processes and strategies he/she uses. Working efficiently and collaboratively, will allow your child to maximise his/her potential.

This class page aims to share with you examples of children’s work, photos of the children immersed in their learning. You will also find lots of exciting class news, so please ensure you keep your eye on our class page. 

If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to ask either myself or Mrs Akhtar, and we will do our very best to help you. 

Mr Hayward and Mrs Akhtar
