Tapestry for Parents slides

• a safe, caring environment with a large fenced outdoor area, well equipped for play and learning
• stimulating, attractive classrooms
• a good balance between child initiated experiences and direct teaching, including reading taught using Jolly Phonics and Letters & Sounds
• children’s progress is recorded and measured in their learning journey
• fun!

Early Years provision is judged to be GOOD.

The teaching of phonics is good. Pupils love to read and use their phonics skills well… Owing to effective teaching and learning and a well-resourced setting, by the end of Reception Year, children make good progress from their different starting points. Children are confident, independent learners who are well prepared to move into Year 1.
