Topics
As a school we have moved away from half termly topics for Years 1-3 as of the Summer Term – this will keep things fresh and effectively intersperse Geography and History skills. Reception topics will continue to be delivered for a full term, with Geography and History skills being covered under the umbrella of the topic, as well as there being an emphasis on the areas of the EYFS curriculum.

Due to legislation we are requested to provide the Parents with information that the following documents are available on request:

• Promotion of Good Behaviour Policy
  (Behaviour Policy)
• Pupil Safety and Welfare
• Travel and Trip Policy
