Squirrels – For year R. The children start Year R at the beginning of the academic year in which they are 5 years old. They follow the Early Years Foundation Stage curriculum, which is based on learning through play and exploration. Their learning is tailored to ensure that the interests of the children form the basis of our planning.

Hedgehogs – for years 1 and 2. In Year 1 and 2 the children follow the National Curriculum and we ensure the children benefit from a continued more hands on, practical approach to learning.

Foxes – for years 5 and 6 and is our upper Key Stage 2 class. We prepare the children for their transition to their choice of secondary school through our close links with our local secondary schools.
