Frequently asked questions
We have 3 classes of up to 30 children in Foundation Stage.
These are Red, Yellow and Blue Class.
Look out for details of your child’s class in the induction pack.
The class lists are put together extremely carefully, taking into full consideration parental requests, advice from nursery, nursery friendship groups and ensuring an even mixture of girls and boys as well as Summer and Winter born children.
Obviously, we don’t yet know your children, and while it is most likely that these class groups will travel throughout the school years in these classes, they are not set in stone.
From time to time, for a variety of reasons, we find we need to make necessary adjustments and changes after the Foundation Year and before Year 1 in order to ensure the best possible journey through school.
We like all our children to wear the school uniform, which is as follows:
Winter: October – Easter
Grey skirt/pinafore or grey tailored trousers
White blouse/shirt
School tie
Navy blue cardigan/pullover/or school sweatshirt
Black school shoes
Summer: Easter to October half term
Blue and white gingham dress, jumpsuits or grey trousers/shorts
Short sleeved polo shirt sky blue
Black school shoes
Each child should also have a pump bag, dark blue shorts, a school T-shirt (in the appropriate house colour – of which you will be advised) and plimsolls.
Any item containing a school logo is available to purchase from:
Bispham Clothing,
All Hallows Road,
Bispham.
Or we have a wide selection of preloved school uniform, please enquire at the school office.
Please ensure that your child’s name is CLEARLY MARKED on all his/her belongings, including shoes. We expect all children to take pride in their appearance. With this in mind, extremes of fashion, such as garish bows and extreme hair styles are not allowed in school.
