At LIA we endeavour to
create and provide a happy, caring, Islamic environment, where
each individual is respected while encouraging him/her to
be confident and excited about new challenges and to strive
towards excellence in all they do.
Lia Primary
Our
school is a mixed Primary School for children between
the ages of 3 and 11 years. The school is organised
into three departments:
Foundation
Stage (Reception and pre reception year)
Key Stage 1 (Infants)
Key Stage 2 (Juniors)
Our youngest children
follow the DfES Foundation Stage curriculum.
In the Autumn after
their fifth birthday children will join one of our Key
Stage 1 classes and will follow the National Curriculum
and Literacy and Numeracy frameworks.
Children are placed in class groups according
to age. Wherever possible we try to arrange classes so
that each class has an age range of one year. On occasions
the number of children in a particular year group may
make this impracticable.
Admissions
to the School
We
encourage parents to register their children for
school as soon as possible, but certainly by the
time your child is two years of age.
Admission forms can be collected from the school
office or requested by post by telephoning the
office (0116-2705343).
Whether you are considering an admission into
our Foundation Stage base or an admission at a
later stage, the office staff would be very happy
to take you around our school. Please contact
the office if you would like to make an appointment.
Towards
the end of the term before admission, parents
are invited to an induction day to meet the Foundation
Stage base and other school staff and to hear
more about starting school.
For further details a welcome pack is available
for children attending foundation stage.
