FS2 Overview
Reception Class (FS2)
Our wonderful Reception class provides an exceptional early years learning environment where every child is nurtured, challenged, and inspired. The classroom is warm, inclusive, and highly engaging, with purposeful learning areas both indoors and outdoors that promote independence and exploration. Our highly skilled practitioners deliver a rich, balanced curriculum rooted in play-based learning and tailored to individual needs. Phonics, early literacy, and numeracy are taught systematically, and children apply these skills confidently in cross-curricular contexts. Staff use questioning effectively to extend thinking and language development.
We use the Statutory Framework for the Early Years Foundation Stage to inform our planning and teaching. In addition, at the beginning of the year the children will take part in Statutory Reception Baseline and at the end of the year parents will be informed if their child has or has not achieved a Good Level of Development (GLD), a progress measure set out by the Department for Education.
Over the year we host a number of open evenings and parent workshops so that you can come and view our school and provision. If you would like further details on this then please contact the office to book in.
The adults in Reception are:
Miss H Newman (Teacher & EYFS Leader), Mrs E Taylor (Teacher), Mrs T Jackson (Teaching Assistant), Mrs E Elsom (Teaching Assistant)
