Teachers changing year groups

[Royaldada]

Is it more common for KS2 teachers to teach different year groups every year than it is Rec/KS1.

The reason why I ask this is because apart from a change in job share teacher. Next year's Rec/KS1 teachers are the same as this year's but in KS2

A Yr 3 teacher will be teaching one Yr 5 class and a Yr 4 teacher will be teaching the other and both Yr 5 teachers will be in Yrs 3 and 4

Both Yr 6 teachers are the same

and I wondering if this common or not

There are no nationally prescribed topics for specific year groups.

KS2 has some specific periods of British and world history that must be covered over the 4 years, but it doesn't go into a great deal of detail of the exact content.

Science has specific content, which is broadly split into subgroups that cover bio, chem and physics. Some of that will need to be taught discretely, but a lot could be threaded into different topics as long as you cover the content.

We treat the curriculum as the minimum entitlement

Ah yes, so roughly the same as us. From some of the private teaching groups on fb you'd sometimes get the opposite impression.

Treating the curriculum as minimum standard to reach is applicable to all countries, I would havr thought. Assuming it is reachable for the target level.
