CURRICULUM

The curriculum offered at John Cross School follows the elements of the National Curriculum laid down by the Education Reform Act of 1998. There are four core subjects and six foundation subjects.

PRE-SCHOOL

Pre-school children are invited to attend each Wednesday afternoon from the January to July before the September they are due to start school. This induction process was commented on in our recent inspection. Inspectors said, “The excellent induction arrangements give children a very positive start to school life, enable them to settle quickly into full time schooling and have a positive impact on their personal and social development.

EXTRA-CURRICULAR
