Staggered Entry

All children will have a staggered start to Reception, so that they have enough time to settle and familiarise themselves with their new setting. Staggered start will begin from Monday 9th September. Monday 16th September, all children will start school full time.

What is being in Reception like?

Throughout their time in Reception, children will engage with the Foundation Stage Curriculum. This curriculum is made of seven areas of learning, three prime areas and four specific areas. The prime areas are personal, social and emotional development, physical development and communication and language. The specific areas are literacy, mathematics, understanding the world and expressive arts and design. It is key that children engage with activities which develop their skills throughout these areas and set a foundation for learning that is fundamental in securing positive educational outcomes for pupils. In Reception, learning takes place in many different ways through child initiated and adult led activities. The foundation stage curriculum places a great emphasis on children being active learners that are guided to explore and understand the world around them. At the end of Reception, children are assessed against the Early Learning Goals.
