I found the process great for easing our daughter in steadily, with the gradual build-up of hours, but it also has minimal impact on working parents who may not be able to easily juggle a complex and lengthy timetable of taster sessions, before full time school commences.\nI have found the Reception teaching staff to be a professional and talented team who show lots of care and understanding to the children, but also provide welcomed reassurance to us parents too!
