Statutory Spelling Vocabulary

The KS2 statutory spelling vocabulary list is an essential tool for Year 6 students in the UK, providing them with a comprehensive set of words that they are expected to spell correctly. This list includes a variety of words that cover different aspects of the English language, ranging from common words such as 'accommodate', 'ancient', and 'average', to more challenging terms like 'conscious', 'controversy', and 'convenience'. Each word has been carefully selected to enhance the pupils' spelling and vocabulary skills, preparing them for the higher demands of literacy in their educational journey.

Words like 'dictionary', 'environment', 'harass', and 'government' not only improve spelling proficiency but also help to broaden the students' understanding of the world around them. The vocabulary list also includes words with silent letters and irregular spellings, such as 'foreign', 'lightning', 'muscle', and 'nuisance', which often present spelling challenges. By mastering these terms, students will not only prepare for spelling assessments but also develop a stronger command of the English language that will benefit them in various forms of communication and expression.
