Our son has joined william amorys reception class this September and we have been very impressed with the measures taken by the school in creating a positive and stress free transition to the school. We are frequently kept upto date with the learning that is taking place in the classroom. The Head is present around the school groups in the morning and end of the school day which is lovely to see.
