Marsden Infant & Nursery School

We  recognise that pupils learn at different rates and that there are many factors affecting achievement, including ability, emotional state, age and maturity. 

We are particularly aware of that maturity is a crucial factor in terms of readiness to learn for children in the Early Years Foundation Stage and Key Stage 1.

We  understand that many pupils, at some time in their school career, may experience difficulties which affect their learning, and the school recognises that these may be long or short term. We recognise the importance of Early intervention and seek to ensure that gaps are reduced so that children remain on track.

Marsden I and N aims to identify these needs as they arise and provide teaching and learning contexts, which enable every child to achieve to his or her full potential. In doing this, close partner - working with parents/carers we recognise as essential.
