Reception Baseline Assessment

You may have heard through the news and other media, that our current Reception children will take part in the Reception Baseline Assessment.  This will take part within the first six weeks of your child joining Reception.  The process is carried out by your child's class teacher and consists of completing various practical activities on a one-to-one basis.  Please read through the attached document by the Department for Education which explains the process and reasoning behind it.  There will certainly be nothing to worry about!
