KEY STAGES: The Study Group
follows the National Curriculum for England and Wales,
which is divided into three stages at primary level:
Foundation Stage Nursery and Reception
Key Stage 1 Years 1 & 2
Key Stage 2 Years 3 to 6
The two main sections of the Study Group (Foundation
with KS1 and KS2) each has a co-ordinator in charge.
Pupils are assessed at the end of each school year. In
Year 6 pupils complete the UK SATs tests, which provide
us with a comparison of our standards against all
similar age schools in England and Wales.
LUNCH:
The Study Group does not provide lunches. Children
should bring a packed lunch. Please do not send in fast
food e.g. burgers or other hot food. Our school nurse helps with a healthy
eating policy and is pleased to advice parents about
content of lunches. These are eaten under supervision in
the hall. The lunch monitors will try to ensure that
children make a good attempt at eating the food provided
by you. In return we ask parents to provide lunch they
would reasonably expect their child to eat. Filtered
water is provided. Any drinks brought into the Study
Group should be in unbreakable containers, and must not
be in cans.
MEDICINE:
If a child requires medication this must be brought to
the Study Group nurse. It must be clearly labelled, and
be supported either by a written prescription or letter
from your doctor. The medicine will be kept in the
nurse’s office. The only exception is for such medicines
as asthma inhalers.
Please note that the administration of medicine is done
on a voluntary basis by the staff, none of whom can
accept responsibility for negligence in connection with
such administration.
A full health policy is available for parents to read by
application to the school office.
MUSIC:
In addition to our normal music lessons, the Study Group
has provision for peripatetic music at an additional
cost. This is provided as an optional extra, and takes
place through the school day. Currently we provide
teaching for individuals in piano, guitar. |
