Expectations for Y1

Here are the expectations for your child in Y1

• Reading is to be done every night at home and diaries are to be signed by the adult who listened to them. Planners are checked daily.   

• Spellings are handed out on a Friday to be practised at home as well as in school and a test is given every Friday. 

• Homework will be given at the end of each term.  Homework is used to consolidate or extend the learning that has taken place in school. 

• Attendance is expected to be at least 97%. This is equivalent to having just five days off throughout the academic year.

• Children are to wear a plain white T-shirt, black shorts and black pumps for PE lessons as per the school uniform policy. 

• It is essential that your child’s name is clearly labelled with their full name in all uniform.
