KS2 Gems is run by experienced KS2 teachers who believe that a sensible work/life balance is possible with access to a bank of resources that contribute to stimulating and creative teaching. Resources on this site give you ideas for starting points, ready-to-go presentations and activities, saving hours of trawling the internet. From these you can plan lessons that meet the needs of your class and the English National Curriculum. Learning is achieved through exciting high quality activities with cross- curricular links.

We believe that creativity in planning is key. Each class is unique and one of the key skills in teaching is the design of lessons to suit the children sat in front of you. Our children are unique and deserve learning experiences that stimulate their curiosity and creativity. If the creativity of teachers is stifled it impacts on their ability to produce engaging experiences for their class. That is why we provide banks of ideas and activities for you to tailor to meet the needs of those enquiring minds in your classroom this year. No two classes are the same – inspire their learning; be creative in your thinking.
