Class 1 Mrs Craven

Welcome to Class 1!

Welcome to Class 1

Class 1 is for children in Reception and Year 1. There are three teaching assistants, Mrs Clark, Mrs bainbridge and Miss Porter as well as the class teacher, Mrs Craven. It is a lovely classroom with a big outdoor area where the children can access all areas of the Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS) where we promote enquiry-based learning, independence and the development of a child's skills through free-flow time alongside daily small group focussed teaching. As this is a mixed year group class, the learning environment also supports the National Curriculum for Year 1 children with structured activities as well the opportunity to extend their learning in the outdoor environment. All children in Class 1 learn phonics and early writing skills through the Read, Write Inc programme of small group teaching (details below).
