Welcome to William Reynolds Primary School and Nursery

 

Thank you for considering your child’s educational journey to start at William Reynolds Primary School and Nursery. We believe that the Early Years Foundation Stage is crucial in providing the secure foundations that are built upon throughout a child’s education journey. So, we have created a Foundation Stage that starts with the child, supports, and develops the role of parents who we build good relationships with, offers a high-quality environment, and provides pupils with exciting contexts for their learning. We believe all children including SEND and PPG should have the same opportunities, encouraging them to be curious, to play and explore, actively engage in their learning, and develop skills of creativity and critical thinking. Our aim is for the majority of children to gain or exceed the Early Learning Goals but for all children to make good progress and reach their full potential.

If you have any questions or would like to have a look round the school, please ring or email school and book a tour with Miss Lloyd (Early Years Phase Leader).

Reception Baseline Assessment

 

Children in Reception complete the Reception Baseline Assessment (RBA) within the first six weeks of starting Reception. The purpose of the assessment is to provide the starting point for a progress measure that will help parents understand how well school supports their pupils to progress between reception and year 6. The RBA is a short, interactive and practical assessment of your child's early literacy, communication, language and mathematical skills when they begin school.
