Reception class is an exciting year with lots of great learning opportunities for their first year at St Joseph’s. You can find out more about what Reception class are learning further down the page.
If you have any questions about Reception class, Miss Carr is on hand at the end of the school day who will be happy to offer support and help you. Please contact the school office if you would like a longer meeting. You can also contact them on Class Dojo by messaging the school office.
As part of our whole school commitment to wellbeing there is no expectation on our staff to read or answer emails sent between 4pm and 8am in the week, or any at weekends or holidays. Should your email not receive an immediate reply, this is not a case of being impolite but one of choosing wellbeing ahead of workload.

For more information about the topics your child will be learning, please visit our curriculum page:
The Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS) Profile
An EYFS Profile is used to make accurate judgements in EYFS learning environments. The EYFS Profile is a government handbook that is produced to help EYFS practitioners make accurate judgements about a child's progress. Built around examining children's development based on the 7 Areas of Learning and the developmental outcomes of the EYFS Statutory Framework, the assessment provides a clear evaluation of development, strengths and areas of improvement for each child. Adults in Reception class will evaluate your child on the 7 Areas of Learning throughout the year.
You will find out more about this during the ‘Meet the Teacher’ meeting and throughout the year.
