At Corpus Christi Primary, we welcome children from a variety of nursery schools, and we prioritise creating a seamless transition into primary education. Our commitment to collaboration extends to our excellent relationships with local nurseries and neighbouring primary schools.
Here’s how we ensure a smooth transition:
Transition Booklets for Parents: We’ve partnered closely with nursery schools to develop informative booklets for parents. These booklets cover the transition from nursery to P1, focusing on language and numeracy skills. They are designed to support parents in preparing their children for this exciting journey.
Induction Days in May: In May, we host induction days for all children who will be starting school in August. These days offer a valuable opportunity for children to meet their future teachers and for parents to gain insights into our school community and its values.
Our close links with nursery schools and our commitment to a well-structured transition process ensure that every child’s journey into primary education is a positive and nurturing experience.
The nursery schools within our Learning Community include:
- Anderson Street Nursery School
- Cranstonhill Nursery School
- Kelso Nursery School
- Knightswood Early Years Centre
- Sandyford Day Nursery
- Sandy Road Day Nursery
- Pikeman Nursery
While Pikeman Nursery may not be within our immediate learning community, we are proud to have established strong and meaningful connections with this esteemed early childhood education institution. These links are a testament to our commitment to providing a smooth and welcoming transition for the children who join us from Pikeman Nursery. We work closely to ensure that our incoming pupils and their families feel supported and prepared as they embark on their primary school journey with us. Our collaborative efforts with Pikeman Nursery exemplify our school’s values of inclusivity, community, and excellence in education. We are excited to welcome these young learners into our school family, where they will continue to thrive, learn, and grow.
If you are a parent or guardian considering Corpus Christi for your child after their time at Pikeman Nursery, we encourage you to reach out to us for more information and a warm welcome. Together, we can ensure a seamless transition and a bright future for your child’s education.
We look forward to welcoming your child and family into our warm and supportive learning environment at Corpus Christi Primary.
