Lum Head Primary School, Gatley

Reception Parents

Parents/Carers,

 

A warm welcome to all of our Reception parents/carers and children. We all know that starting school can be an exciting time for many but can also bring worries when children are facing new challenges. At Lum Head we work hard to ensure that your child has a smooth transition from their pre-school or nursery setting. As part of this process our EYFS leader organises visits to all pre-schools and nursery settings to offer transition activities long before the children come to Lum Head. This ensures that we know your child well and helps us to meet any individual needs they may have. 

 

Below is an Information pack for new parents.

 

"Steps To Starting School" gives you some top tips and help you to prepare your child and build their confidence ready for that first day. 

 

"What to expect in EYFS - A guide for parents" is a handy guide to your child’s learning and development in the Early Years Foundation Stage. 

 

Are you a parent or carer attending school who is struggling with your child’s sleep, toileting or behaviour? Would you like advice on speech and language?

 

Our next Top Tips week is fast approaching starting on week commencing 2nd December 2024

 

This forms part of Start Well’s universal virtual offer for families with children pre-birth - 5 years (some sessions are for children up to age of 10) . The sessions are live, offering advice and tips on supporting all aspects of a child’s development and school readiness.
