                                                                                                                      At Hands-On Education, we understand the importance of the Primary School level English National Curriculum as a guide for teachers and home educators. Our goal for each year group is to cover as many aspects of the National Curriculum of England as possible within our framework. We pride ourselves on designing activities that are both fun and educational, with each activity linked to at least one point in the National Curriculum. Our primary aim is to make learning an enjoyable and interactive experience for children, while also providing parents and educators with effective activities that deliver results. By taking a hands-on approach to education, we ensure that children are engaged and motivated to learn, leading to a deeper understanding and retention of the material. At Hands-On Education, we are committed to providing high-quality, engaging educational resources that benefit both children and educators alike.

                                                                                                                      It's important to note that while certain sections of the National Curriculum may not be covered in Year One through Year Six, it's still essential to provide children with a well-rounded education. That's why it's great to see that your lessons, worksheets, and videos are fulfilled as extensively as possible, offering a comprehensive learning experience for students.
