Infant Department

In Years 1 and 2 children follow The National Curriculum; annual NFER tests together with ongoing assessment facilitate careful monitoring of progress. If there are any concerns regarding a child’s development, we believe that early intervention is vital and we therefore screen all pupils to detect any potential problems. Specialist support is provided where necessary.
