Key Stage 1 is made up from a small group of children in Year 1 & 2. They are taught by Mrs Unsworth and Mrs Harkin.

The school day starts at 9am where we welcome and register the whole class together, after this, the children jump straight into phonics, using Red Rose Phonics, the children enjoy the fast paced, exciting structure of the scheme. Following this, the children take part in engaging English sessions and guided reading. This is taught in a mixed age group of year 1 & 2, our small class sizes mean we can focus on each child as an individual throughout all of our lessons. After the break, the children have mathematics, we use White Rose Maths alongside enrichment from Numberblocks, we especially enjoy learning the songs they use.

Lunch is from 12pm until 1pm and in the afternoons the Infants have wide ranging curriculum which includes: Music,  Geography, History, Science, RE, PSHE, art and PE, we use Kapow resources to support our curriculum.  On Thursday afternoons the children all go swimming at Lancaster University. On Monday, Wednesday and Friday, the children have an assembly at 3.15pm and the school day finishes at 3.30pm. Breakfast club is available from 8am onwards and After School Club takes place until 4.30pm. Children across the school have the opportunity to take part in a wide range of lunctime clubs which have sporting, art, musical and environmental focuses.

The infants read every day with an adult and choose from a large range of books which are carefully matched to their phonics phase. In Year 2, the children are able to choose their reading books more freely, using Accelerated Reader to find the books most suitable to their reading ability.
