Few Words About Us
We understand that starting school is a new and exciting- sometimes daunting- experience for your child, and in many cases, for you as parents. We want to make this transition as easy as possible for both you and your child. We hope that this website will help to answer some of the questions you may have, as well as showing you where to get the answers to the questions we haven’t dealt with.
Each year we admit up to 50 children from our local environment and as you read through our handbook, I hope you will get a feel for the high quality of care and education we provide for our children.
The children are at the centre of everything we do and our aim is to give them the best opportunities that we possibly can. We see The Premier Cornerstone Academy as a community made up of the children, staff and parents. We all have an important contribution to make and we value the support of parents and families. Please get in touch if you have anything to discuss, as the saying goes “our door is always open!”
You will soon see that life at The Premier Cornerstone Academy is never dull: we are always looking for new and innovative ways to make learning enjoyable and challenging. We do not stand still as we are constantly aiming to improve everything we do.

The Curriculum for the Primary school
The Primary school pupils follow the National Education Curriculum, which includes the core subjects of English, Mathematics, Science, Religious Study and I.C.T. Most of your child’s work in school will be practical, investigational and based on solving problems related to real situations.
However, each National Curriculum area has several essential skills that children will need to develop in order to progress. At The Premier Cornerstone School, these skills will be specifically taught as part of a continuous and planned programme of work in each Key Stage.
“The FUN is in Foundation”
Your child’s time in reception is designed to be the transition between nursery and the ‘big school’. Our Foundation Department has been designed to be similar to a nursery environment so as to support your child and help them settle into school. Ours is a stimulating environment with the emphasis on learning through play. We want your child to get used to school life and become an independent, motivated learner.
The reception stage is seen as a key part of your child’s school life, it is the starting block and if we get that right then their progress will be smoother.
Special arrangements are made to ease their start in school. These are publicised at the Parents Teachers Forum (PTF) regularly and regular publicity within our locality.
Supporting your child at home:
Your child will be getting used to reading, writing and arithmetic at school. It really helps if you could encourage them to practice these skills at home as well.
Reading Reading at home is the most important thing that you can do to help your child succeed.
Aim to spend about 10 to 15 minutes per day sharing a book with your child. If this is too long then break it down into 5 minute sessions.
Your child will be bringing a book home to share with you. They should be able to talk about the pictures in the book and tell the story in their own words. It is helpful for young children to read the same book more than once, but if you are worried about this please speak to your child’s teacher.
The books provided will be appropriate to your child’s reading abilities, remember everyone will learn at a slightly different pace.
Some tips to help you:
This should be a happy time together, not a chore or a test.
If they get stuck on a word say “try to work it out”, silently count to three and if they haven’t got the word by then, just tell them and keep the story going smoothly, we make sure they are listening to what they read. Sometimes children do not notice if their reading does not make sense. Ask “did that make sense?” if they are unsure.
It might help some children to look through a new book with you before reading it so that it is not completely unfamiliar.
After reading, ask your child some questions to make sure that they have understood what they have read.
Give lots of praise to build confidence.
