See below for an overview of our three phases; Early Years Foundation Stage, Key Stage One and Key Stage Two.

See below for details on curriculum and assessment at Gainsborough School.

We operate a soft start system. Children can come into the school from 8.30am and start to enter classes from 8.45am. At this time children will complete some routine tasks to settle them into the morning: times tables practice, home reading book swaps, spelling or handwriting. We believe this is a positive way to start the school day and allows staff and children to have a more personal start to the day.

This is a very important stage as it helps your child prepare for their future learning and successes.

Here is an overview of Key Stage 1 and Key Stage 2.

Learning Logs are given out at the start of each school year to children in years 1-6. These must be brought to school every day and taken home every night.
