A reminder for our new families joining us in September 2020

Dear Parent/Carer,

We have been advised by the Local Authority that you have accepted a Reception place for your child in our school to start in September 2020. Thank you for choosing Broadford. We look forward to your child starting their school journey with us in September and getting to know them as the wonderful individuals that they are!

As a school, we are committed to smooth and timely transitions that allow each child to settle in, get to know their teachers and make new friends. We believe parents and carers play a key role in this transition so you too can feel reassured that your children are safe and happy. We can only imagine that during this time of uncertainty, the natural worries and anxieties that occur when children are about to start school are increased. At this time, it is difficult for us to publish details of our usual transition programme. However, please let us reassure you that we are planning ways in which we can prepare for your child and give them the best possible start to school.

We will be keeping in touch over the summer term via email, to inform you of our plans and update you with regular information. Whilst this may start off as more of a virtual relationship, this remains a priority for us. We will also be keeping in touch via social media and on our school website. Please do visit our social media pages and our webite to keep up to date with information. The links can be found below:

Please check your emails as we have sent out information today containing our welcome letter and school admission form, which will need returning by 1st June. If you haven't received the email (please check your spam folder) or have difficulty accessing any of the information, please do call our school office on 01708 342880 and we will arrange to send out a paper copy to you.

In the meantime, please enjoy the video that we have attached to share with your child to familiarise yourselves with our Reception learning space. Just click on the link below.
