Welcome to Fakenham Infant and Nursery School from all the staff and children.
We are a thriving and successful school serving the families of Fakenham and surrounding villages. We have a Nursery unit which has places for pupils aged between 2 and 4. The main school takes children from Reception to Year 2.
We are a very friendly and welcoming school and we aim to build a strong and long-lasting relationship with parents and the local community. Read more >>
It is that time of year when parents and children start to think about who their teacher might be next year. However, this can distract on the remaining 6 ½ weeks of this year – a significant number of weeks in the whole school year. We will let you know the week before the transition day, which is Tuesday 8th July. I can, however, tell you that we have looked at the classes across the two schools and they seem quite well balanced and are working well for the vast majority of pupils. Therefore, we have decided not to remix any year groups moving into 2025/6.

Today is the end of what feels like the shortest half term ever. Hopefully you are all aware we are closed next week, and the schools will reopen on Monday 2nd June at normal times. When we return, the Y4’s will be doing their Times-Table screening check – so a bit of ‘fun’ practice over the break would be useful. In the same way, Y1 parents, please keep up the Phonics practice too.

It is important that this younger generation understands the significance of the end of WW2, even though it was 80 years ago. I grew up hearing stories about the war from my grandparents, but these first-hand recollections are quickly disappearing.
