Information for September 2026

 

Drop Off

All Key Stage 1 children should enter the school building using the red gate entrance, where they will be greeted by their class teacher. 

This gate will be open from 8:45am and closed promptly at 8:55am. Once they arrive, your child should hang their coat on their individually labelled peg and then go to their classroom to be greeted by a teaching assistant or teacher and begin their early morning work.

 

What to Wear and What to Bring

Children are expected to attend school in full summer school uniform,  please see our uniform page for further details. In addition, children should bring in their PE kit in a named red school drawstring bag and a book bag containing only the following items:

A named water bottle; and

A contact book, a reading book and reading record book (these will be given to your child in the first week).

Children are requested not to bring any toys or equipment from home except under special circumstances and prior agreement with your child's teacher

 

Collection Arrangements

Your child finishes school at 3:15pm and the school gate will be opened at this time to allow you to collect them from the exit door on the same side of the school building.  Please be aware that you must complete a new pick-up arrangements form for this academic year. This can be emailed back to the school office or handed to a member of the class team.

 

Home -  School Communication

During the drop off and collection times, there will always be a member of the year group team on hand who will always do their best to support with any questions or concerns. However, the most effective way to communicate with the class teacher is using your child’s contact book or by emailing the school office who will forward the message on.

If there is anything of a more confidential or sensitive nature, you can email the safeguarding team direct on DSL@fermorschool.org.uk

 

 

 

We hope the information on this page has been helpful. If you have any further questions, please do not hesitate to contact a member of the Year 1 team. It is our goal to ensure every child is settled and happy in Key Stage 1 and enjoying their journey through primary school.
