Riseley C of E Lower School was founded in 1841 to provide education according to the principles and practices of the Church of England. It is part of the maintained system of education and is operated in partnership with the Local Authority.
The school caters for children between the ages of 3 and 9. At the age of 9, children normally transfer to Margaret Beaufort Middle School. At age 13, pupils transfer to Sharnbrook Upper School.
Children are normally offered places in the Nursery (Foundation Stage) for the term after their 3rd birthday, providing places are available. They will then move to Year 1 in the September after their fifth birthday.

The curriculum for Nursery and Reception is based on the Early Learning Goals. Nursery children are known as pre-statutory provision or Foundation Stage.
Key Stage 1 refers to children in Year 1 (5-6 years) and Year 2 (6-7 years).
Key Stage 2 refers to children in Year 3 (7-8 years) and Year 4 (8-9 years). Please note that Key Stage 2 covers four years. Therefore, two years of this study are continued at the Middle School (Years 5 and 6). |
