Hi, my eldest child has just completed Reception and I just can't seem to shake this feeling that the school aren't as good as I had thought.
Please tell me about what they should be learning in subjects like Maths and English, and how much PE they should be doing.
I looked at the National Curriculum but I find it quite overwhelming and difficult to understand in broad terms.
For example, is 1 or 2 sessions of PE a week enough?
Should they be reading fluently at the end of Reception?
How should handwriting be?
Should they understand adding, subtracting, multiplication (times tables), and division?
I'm also really questioning the end of year report. Should my child be coming home with a report that gives her a ranking or mark in each subject?
Thank you for your feedback and help. Wish I didn't feel so worried and concerned about school when my little one is still so young.
