Scroll to the bottom of this page for next year's Reception intake information 

It is important to read daily with your child, decoding words and discussing the content of the text, as this will have the greatest impact on your child's reading and writing progress as well as opening doors for them to be able to access all other areas of learning within the curriculum. You will find some helpful advice in the front of their home-school reading diary. The Year Group Pages provide information about your child's curriculum, the essential knowledge organisers with key vocabulary and key information to help them learn and remember more.    

Homework is set at the end if each week, alternating between phonics/spelling and maths to help you to know what your child has been learning in school and to enable your child to practice at home and consolidate their knowledge. 

If you want to know more about our purposeful Briar Hill Infant School Curriculum

All applications received by the deadline of 15 January will receive a school offer on 16 April next year, which is National Offer Day. Any applications submitted after the 15 January deadline will only be considered after this, meaning the child is much less likely to be offered a place at a preferred school. 

Applications can be made online after 1 November at www.warwickshire.gov.uk/primaryplace.
