Information / School Ready

We will support all children in a caring and sensitive to way to be ready for their transition to school.

Being based inside the school has many advantages for all children (not just those who hope to attend to the school). We work alongside Buxton Infant School whenever possible, we join in with special events and every day children have their lunches in the hall alongside the school children which really helps to prepare them for what to expect for mealtimes when they start school. We use every opportunity we can to support children to develop the independence skills and confidence to be familiar with dressing and undressing and managing their belongings.
