Hi all, I’m new to this. Does anyone have any experience of sending their child to a stand alone setting, specifically forest school, for their child’s reception year? We are considering sending our son to the local forest school for his reception year, he’ll then continue into year 1 at the primary across the road. The forest school in question are Ofsted outstanding, regularly take children for their reception year and have the type of ethos I strongly believe is best for learning- childled/risky play etc.
I have worked in education for 15+ years so not looking for peoples opinions on this decision. Anybody out there done this with their child?How did it work out? Did they struggle settling into year 1?
