Thanks to Covid the school my DD will be starting at has had to hold all intros in Sept and they all feel very “cold”.
We had a family explore day last week - only one parent with child could attend. We spent about 3 minutes in their classroom with masks on then back in to the playground.
We have two x one hour visits this week, the idea is for parents to leave the children there.
And three morning visits next week, again children left there.
My DD suffers with separation anxiety, beyond normal levels, GP thinks she suffers with general anxiety. We had a meeting back in January about how the school would support her to help her settle but it’s changed. School has a no parents on site policy now so drop off will be to queue at the gate keeping 2 metres apart, TA or teacher will take child to classroom and parent leaves. You’re not allowed to walk child in to their classroom and stay 10 mins and help them settle in the first term.
If you have a child starting Reception now what is your school doing?
