Willingdon Primary School

We want to ensure your child has the best possible start at school. Our main aim in Reception is for your child to be happy in their environment and foster the behaviour for learning in a fun and exciting way.  Our strong reception team creates play based activities that are fully inclusive, creative and give endless opportunities for learning. The children are free to explore any of the four zones of the Reception area. We call this practice ‘freeflow’.  We are confident that this practice is best for our children and are proud of our excellent end of year results that we have achieved over the (past two) years. 

It is of upmost importance to us that the transition from pre-school to school is as smooth as possible for your child and this starts long before the September they begin with us. We have good links with our main feeder pre-schools and hold open afternoons at school that help us to find out about your child before they join us at Willingdon Primary School. 

We are looking forward to meeting you soon.
