Our recent OFSTED report (September 2023) observed that, 'Firm foundations of learning start in Reception class. Staff use every opportunity, including books and stories, to develop children’s vocabulary and communication skills. Children in the early years are well prepared for the demands of Year 1. '
If you want to come and have a look round then please just ring (01625 428 222) or email ([email protected]).
