Moat House Primary School is organised into four key areas (called phases): Foundation Stage, Key Stage 1, Lower Key Stage 2 and Upper Key Stage 2. Each phase has a Phase Leader, who is a senior teacher and is responsible for the day to day running of the phase. There are three other teachers in each phase. Support staff including: nursery nurses, teaching assistants, learning mentors and EAL support staff are allocated to each phase, based on the needs of a particular phase.
