Last half term we reviewed our transitions and thought about the additional support we could offer the children who would soon be leaving us to start school. We have always been very proactive in inviting teachers from surrounding schools to come to our setting as it helps them get to know the children who will be starting their reception class in September.
Being able to witness the children engaging with their peers and playing in an environment in which they feel comfortable helps the teachers to really understand the children who will be joining their class. This has always been a rewarding experience and gives us a chance to share information with teachers face to face, rather than just in a written report.
