Our Reception Classes

At Fosse Way we endeavour to have no more than 25 children in our Reception classes and 30 children in any other class. 

 

During the summer term, before your child starts mainstream school in September, parents will be invited to a meeting to discuss 'your child's first year at school’ – what we call a transition meeting. Children are able to spend some time in school during the summer term prior to their admission.  This is an important part of their preparation for coming to school on a full time basis: it gives your child confidence, enables them to meet the teacher and gives you the opportunity to look around the early years classes.
