This is a fantastically useful 4 page guide to the expectations at the end of Reception. As with our Blossom Guide to the End of Nursery Expectations, this guide contains statements describing the skills knowledge and understanding a 5 year old should typically be expected to be able to do at the end of the Reception year. Having this guide handy will help you to keep track throughout the Reception year of where you are headed and what the end goal is.
