SUCCESS FOR ALL

Information for parents

Welcome to Reception

This is an important year as your child will continue to develop their independence as well as their social and emotional skills. We will also teach your child to read, write and work with numbers. Most importantly, your child will come to school and have fun learning about and making new friendships.

Getting Ready for Reception – A Guide for Parents
Starting school is a big step, and every child develops at their own pace. The Starting Reception website offers helpful guidance for nursery and reception parents to support their child in becoming 'reception ready'. It outlines key skills that schools typically expect children to be working on before their first day. Practising these skills can help ensure a smoother, more positive start to school life.
