Reception

At Gracefield school we place a lot of importance on ensuring that each individual child settles into the Reception year. Children very quickly adapt to the daily routine of attending school and soon become members of the school community.

Gracefield School are providers of the Early Years Educational Entitlement, which offers 15 hours a week of free education for eligible children.

The Reception Class has a qualified teacher and teaching assistant. In the Reception Year activities are based upon the Foundation Stage Guidelines made up of six areas of learning:

  • Personal, social and emotional development
  • Communication language and literacy
  • Problem solving reasoning and numeracy
  • Knowledge and understanding of the world
  • Physical development
  • Creative development
