Transition to School Programme
At Poppies we work to ensure your child's transition to school is as smooth as possible by fostering independence, and encouraging children to take responsibility for themselves and their belongings.
In the mornings the older children take part in "getting ready for school mini group". This group time focuses on ensuring the children are ready for school. We work on the five key concepts of maths, literacy, self help skills, social skills and children's choice.
We have good relationships with local primary schools regularly visiting the main schools we feed into. We are also part of the local Community of Learning COL.
