Welcome to our Foundation Unit at Wootton St Andrew's Primary School
At Wootton St. Andrew’s school reception age children learn and play together sharing our well resourced indoor and outdoor areas. The staff team endeavour to build on children's strengths, interests and experiences by providing a stimulating and relevant curriculum following the Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS).
As a church school , Christian values are central to our ethos and the children learn to value themselves and others in a happy, supportive and secure environment.
We recognise that children join the Foundation Stage with a wealth of experiences, and skills that have been nurtured by their families. That is why a partnership between home and school is very important to us, and it is our aim to work closely with parents ad carers to ensure the best outcome for all of the children in our Foundation Unit.
