Our Starting School Programme

Parents/Carers are invited to a New Parents Evening during the second part of the Summer Term prior to the term in which their children start school.The children will be invited to visit the school at the end of the Summer Term, ready for them starting in September. Children in Reception can start full time in September, or parents may choose for their child to attend part-time for the first two weeks. Children in Nursery attend part-time in small groups building up to larger groups over six weeks, giving them a gradual introduction to five mornings per week.

In addition to attending Nursery, children can attend Rubery Pre-School following the morning session, as we have a partnership arrangement in place with the Pre-School who provide opportunities for pre-school children to enjoy 'wrap around' care from 11.45 a.m.-3.15 p.m. Please ask in school for details.
