We believe Reception is the year children’s learning starts to ‘come to life’ as they begin learning to read and write, allowing them to start their journey into being creative, motivated learners. 

What We Teach

Using the EYFS statutory framework we aim to fully submerge your children in their learning through our meticulously planned topics based curriculum. Topics submerge our children into magical lands of learning, where children can feel supported by adults and their environment but are encouraged to achieve independence in learning.

Children will receive phonics teaching using our Success For All phonics programme. Children move rapidly from hearing sounds, to writing and blending independently. 

In Maths we follow the White Rose scheme of learning for the delivery of our maths sessions. This provides a clear sequence of learning and progression for the children. Utilizing this curriculum in exciting and engaging contexts enables the children to develop and apply their skills to different scenarios within our topics.  We follow the CPA approach of concrete, pictorial and abstract to secure the core skills and use the Number Blocks to reinforce our children’s learning and knowledge.

How you can help your child

If your child is in Reception you can support their learning by:

Reading every day
