EYFS - Height and Weight
All children in Reception and Year 6 will have their height and weight measured this year as part of the
National Child Measurement Programme (NCMP). It is important to understand how children are growing,
so that the best possible advice and support can be provided for them and their families.
The measurements will be taken by the School Nursing Service and carried out in a private area away from
other pupils. Children are fully dressed, except for their coat and shoes, and no child’s measurements will
be given to school staff or other children. The programme will be delivered in a COVID-safe way, in line with
the school and the school nursing service’s safety control measures. This includes robust hand and
respiratory hygiene and enhanced cleaning arrangements for the rooms and equipment used to measure
your child’s height and weight as recommended in the national guidance for schools and healthcare.
