STARTING AN ELMS EDUCATION
The focus on the individual sets The Elms apart. Children commencing their primary school journey are nurtured by expert Early Years teaching staff. Their skills and experience unlock the full potential of each child and build educational foundations both inside and outside the Reception class.
MODERN OUTLOOK TO LEARNING
The recently refurbished Reception learning space includes two spacious classrooms, dedicated reading areas, a separate creative zone plus shared play spaces both inside and outside. The free-flow design allows children to flourish in their learning as they move openly between activities and techniques best suited to them. All of this is situated within the Elms Lower School.
Smooth Transition
The Elms prides itself on it’s in-depth transition programme when a child joins Reception. In normal times, before their very first day of school your child’s teacher will visit them in their home, nursery or pre-school. We offer stay and play visits plus many other opportunities to visit us, ensuring every pupil and parent will have a great sense of familiarity with the school, the teachers and the community. During Covid lockdowns a number of safe and appropriate measures are in place.Joining Reception Handbook (PDF)
