This page contains links to various aspects of the Early Years Curriculum and the Curriculum Plan for Reception 2023.
At the start of the year, Reception pupils will be assessed based on the Reception Baseline Assessment.
The RBA is a short, interactive and practical assessment of your child’s early literacy, communication, language and mathematics skills when they begin school, using materials that most children of reception age will be familiar with. It became statutory for all schools from September 2021. The RBA is not about judging or labelling any child or putting them under any pressure. There is no ‘pass’ or ‘fail’ with the assessment. Its main purpose is to create a starting point to measure the progress schools make with their pupils. The teacher will receive a set of statements which provide a narrative description of how your child performed in the assessment. Parents may request to receive these statements too if they wish.
At the end of the year, the pupils will be assessed against the Early Learning Goals.
The Early Learning Goals state at what children at the expected level of development for their age will be able to do.
