Stages for school are designed to help students learn and succeed. They provide a clear lexicon for educators and can be used as a metric to determine a student’s level of engagement in their learning. When a teacher can match an alert to a student’s stage, it can better inform the intervention strategy that will be most effective.

The preoperational stage (2-7 years old) develops symbolic thought and children may have imaginary friends. In the concrete operational stage (7-11 years old), children progress to abstract thinking and understand logical consequences of their actions. The formal operational stage (adolescence to adulthood) demonstrates the ability to plan ahead, think hypothetically, and assume adult responsibilities. Source https://www.stagingspecialists.co.uk/

\Inclusive School Staging: Ensuring Every Student Has a Spotlight

A portable staging system is a great way to provide students with a safe, comfortable space to work and play. It can also be used for special events, awards ceremonies, and other activities. It is an excellent option for schools with outdoor areas that need to be covered by shade during the day. For example, a portable stage can be placed near evergreen trees to help block the wind during a windy day.

The Key Stage 1 age group is 5-6 years old and the upper KS2 (UKS2) is years 3 through 6. Children are tested in English, Maths and Science at each key stage. In the past, students were given national curriculum levels to show their academic progress, but these were abolished in 2014 and replaced with a primary school grading system.
