The Key Stage Structure

KEY STAGE 1 is for children of ages 5 to 7 (Class 1, Class 2)

KEY STAGE 2 is for children aged between 7 and 11 (Classes 3, 4, 5, 6 and 7).

Children begin to attend schools at different ages throughout the country, but all children have to attend school the term after their 5th birthday, by law. For this reason, the time in school before this is in the "RECEPTION" class.

In B&NES, because children are entitles to start school in the September of the school year in which they become 5, the Reception class is for a whole year, for all children, known as the FOUNDATION STAGE. Children in the Reception Class follow a related, but separate curriculum, called the Foundation Curriculum, and this is organised through 6 areas of study. Children in pre-school education will be familiar with the Foundation Curriculum. The National Curriculum is introduced in Y1, and this structure is then used right through GCSEs. The first year in Secondary School is Y7.

Class 1 = Reception	FOUNDATION STAGE (also known as EARLY YEARS)
Class 2 = Year 1	KEY STAGE 1 (previously known as INFANTS)
Class 3 = Year 2
Class 4 = Year 3
Class 5 = Year 4	KEY STAGE 2 (previously known as JUNIORS)
Class 6 = Year 5
Class 7 = Year 6

The School Governors

Governors are like a Board of Directors and make decisions about how the school if run. They meet at least once a term at school. Governors are appointed to help:

- decide what is taught.

- set standards of behaviour.

- interview and select staff.

- decide how the school budget is spent.

Governors have legal duties and can only act together, not individually. School Governors are parents; teachers at the school; local Council representatives; community representatives; businessmen and women.

Parent Governors:

- have a child in school.

- are elected by parents of the school.

- serve, as other Governors do, for 4 years.

If you are interested in becoming a parent Governor, please ask the Headteachers for details. The current board of Governors are:
