The learning that students undertake from Key Stages 1 & 2 up to Key Stage 5 varies greatly, to suit their ever developing minds. In just a few years, young children go from learning the alphabet and numbers, to writing stories and solving sums.
At WiseUp Team Building we offer exciting team building activity days to suit children at every stage of the Key Stage state education system. We think it is incredibly important to educate children both in and out of the classroom, and team building activity days are a great way to do this.
In line with the National Curriculum, which sets out targets to be achieved at each of the Key Stages, we offer activity days that are specifically tailored to the various subjects and assessments to match each of these stages.

During these early stages, where children are still developing in primary education, our activity days can make the most of hands on, interactive challenges to help them visualise and use the knowledge they have learnt in the classroom. Culminating in the SATS tests, which will eventually lead them into secondary school, our activity days can be the perfect antidote to getting young children engaged with their learning outside of the classroom.
Key Stage 3 & 4

In secondary education, students are faced with taking on greater challenges and development. For many, this transition can be difficult, and the learning curve quite steep.
Activity days can be a fantastic way of overcoming this by getting children active and challenged with a wide variety of fun and educational activities. This will not only support their Key Stage learning in preparation for their GCSEs, but will also help them work closer with their peers and develop their skills for later life. Students are actively encouraged to self evaluate themselves and their teammates, utilising key English language skills to build confidence as they present ideas and solutions in group settings.

Beyond secondary school, Key Stage 5 students are faced with difficult decisions and greater challenges with their education.
At this stage, activity days are a fantastic option for helping to alleviate some of that pressure and building relationships with their peers. The skills and knowledge they will learn in these activity days help to encourage teamwork and problem solving, which will be an asset to sixth-form and college students as they complete their higher education and move on to their next step. Independent learning is crucial at this stage, and is emphasised in the student led approach to activities,
Activity days offer an often much needed escape from the classroom and associated pressures, and a chance to work with their classmates in an engaging, yet still educational, environment.
