Update - Parents' Information Evening - Monday 28th June Following the Prime Minister's announcement on 14th June to prolong the wider opening, we are no longer able to go ahead with our Parents' Information Evening as originally planned on Monday 28th June.  We reaslise the importance of transition and enabling you to see the provision we offer to our young learners, so with this in mind we are inviting you to attend in small groups at an allocated time.  Allocated time slots have now been communicated via email to those parents/carers who have confirmed their attendance.  If you are unsure of your allocated time slot, please contact the school office on 01484 845124.  During this information about a Taster Session on Wednesday 7th July and your child's starting schedule for wc 6th September will also be shared.  For parents/carers not attending, this information can be collected from the school office which is open Monday to Friday 8.00am - 4.00pm.

Please note, we operate a staggered intake into both Nursery and Reception, by inviting small groups each day to start with us.  This allows children to have the support they may need as they start school.  This usually takes place during the first 2 weeks of the autumn term. Please be aware that children may not start full time school immediately.  We will provide further information about your child's specific transition timetable as soon as possible.

This page is continuously being updated - please keep checking back for more information over the coming weeks.
