Primary Site Virtual Tour

Welcome to our "virtual tour"

 

We normally welcome and enjoy visits to school for potential admissions. We run very successful open mornings with group tours. However, during the current pandemic and our risk assessment for the safety of pupils and staff this is not currently possible. Therefore, we have put together some information on Forest Park to share with you. There are also links for you to view the Primary Site virtually.

We believe very much in partnership between home and school, the local community and other agencies as they a very important part of ensuring successful outcomes for our pupils. Children learn far more effectively when staff and parents work together and we have various initiatives to ensure this works for parents, children and staff. We are all known by our first names to support the ease of transition for children and families.

 

Here is some information from Emma Harper Robin Class Teacher for our Year R pupils:

 

In Robin Class your child will get a foundation in a highly differentiated Early Years Curriculum. They will learn through topic based, practical, and sensory first-hand experiences. Art, drama, music and PE enrich their learning alongside time in our specialist facilities such as swimming pool and sensory room. They will learn early phonics and maths skills in a variety of contexts. We spend time both in and outdoors with an emphasis on play and social skills. Communication and independence are at the heart of all we do with staff using speech, Makaton and PECS to support communication for all.
