Year 1 marks the transition from the Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS) curriculum your child followed in Reception into Key Stage 1 of the National Curriculum.

Key Stage 1 (KS1) is the first key stage of primary school, a phase of education for 5-7 year-old children.

We always aim to make the transition from Reception to Year 1 a smooth one: the children will still be learning through play, both indoors and outdoors, but across the course of the year, your child’s day will become more structured.

The children will work with their teachers and classmates to build on their existing knowledge, understanding and skills; they will begin to record and share their learning independently and collaboratively, and record it in a range of ways.

We value each child as an individual learner and encourage the children to be as independent as they can in everything they do.

School day starts at 8:45 and finishes at 3:15.
