The Federation of Thomas Wall Nursery and Robin Hood Infants caters for children 3-7 year olds. The two schools are on the same site and we are joined under the same leadership team. In the Nursery we also have a base for children with complex language and social skills which is an Local Authority resource where the 20 children attend part time and during their year at our school their needs are assessed and an EHCP is applied for.
Our Early Years work together across both schools and share a playground. Our Key Stage 1 children follow the National Curriculum and most move on to the Junior School nearby.
