New Starters

Starting school is a very exciting and daunting time for you and your child.  We, as a school, will work with parents individually to ensure it is both positive and rewarding. 

Pupils are admitted to Westwood Primary in the September of the academic year in which they turn 5.  During the previous summer term, visits take place to support children to become familiar with the routines and environment of the school.  Our Early Years Foundation team also visit pupils in their pre-school setting and meet with early year practitioners to gain an understanding of our children. 

In September, the children begin on a part-time basis for the first week to support children to become familiar with the surroundings.
