91风流楼凤

Entry into the Pre-Preparatory and Nursery

Prior to entry, children are invited to spend a morning in school with their prospective year group, during which informal assessments will take place. Children seeking admission into Year 2 will also be assessed more formally in Mathematics and English. This trial morning provides an opportunity for the children to experience life at 91风流楼凤Pre-Preparatory and Nursery and to get to know the children in their future class. If a child is moving from another school they will be asked to bring examples of their current work in Mathematics, English and Reading. We will also contact the child’s school for a written report about their academic achievements and behaviour.

Nursery
Children may join the Nursery as Risings 2s from their second birthday. Children are required to attend a minimum of six sessions per week to ensure they have access to the full range of the curriculum provided. However, sessions can be taken in any combination of full / half days regularly each week, if places are available. 

Transfer to Pre-Preparatory School 
Almost all Nursery pupils continue through to the Pre-Preparatory School. Confirmation of places is made after discussions between the Head of Nursery and the Headmaster, taking issues of behaviour into consideration if necessary. The Head of Nursery can advise on the transfer procedure.

Pre-Preparatory School
Children join the Reception class of the Pre-Preparatory section in the September following their fourth birthday. Pupils may join the School in other year groups, subject to availability of space in each year group. Parents are encouraged to visit with their child before registering for a place. Prior to a place being offered, your child will be invited to spend a morning of informal assessment at the Pre-Preparatory & Pre-School and, where appropriate, a written report from the child's current school or nursery will be requested.

Transfer to Preparatory School after Year 2
It is expected that children will transfer to 91风流楼凤Preparatory School but this is dependent on achieving a certain standard of work in Literacy and Numeracy. Issues of behaviour are also considered, where appropriate, during consultation between the Pre-Preparatory & the Preparatory School, prior to transfer.
