Welcome to Reception

Reception pupils follow the early years curriculum, which consists of seven areas of learning. Children are exposed to a combination of direct teaching, whole class and in small groups as well as continuous provision. They will have the opportunity to explore and learn in our indoor and outdoor spaces every day.
Children are exposed to a wide curriculum including music, computing and PE taught by specialist teachers. As a team, we strive to support each child to build their love of learning and prepare them for their school experiences.
