Welcome to current parents
Welcome to SET Maidstone and Causton School. I am proud to be the Head of School of a School where the children are at the heart of everything we do. Ofsted identified in July 2018 that we ‘work effectively as a team to promote the School’s ethos: ‘enjoy, achieve, thrive’.

PE & Sports Premium
Sport Premium This funding – provided jointly by the Department for Education and Education Funding Agency– can only be spent on provision of PE and sport.

Transition
Transition is when your child moves from one educational phase to the next, for example from Key Stage One (age 5-7) to Key Stage Two (7-11). Change is a normal part of life and can provide opportunities for children to develop their resilience. At SET Maidstone and Causton, the transition period is gradual which allows the children to adapt to their new routine. Class teachers will monitor any children who may need extra time and support to adapt.
