Welcome to Pre School
Early Years is the foundation upon which children develop and build a curiosity and love for learning. In Early Years Foundation Stage, we aim to develop the whole child in an environment which nurtures, encourages and fosters in children an early understanding of what learning is and how to be a good learner through a play curriculum and one that follows the Statutory Early Years Framework.
We aim:
- To provide a purposeful learning environment which enables all the children’s learning needs to be met and where the children feel happy and secure.
- To provide an environment which encourages the skills of investigation and questioning without the fear of failure.
- For each child to develop a growing sense of their own self-image and worth.
- To provide opportunities for children to develop socially, emotionally, physically and academically.
- To be inclusive and provide equality of opportunity regardless of race, gender or disability.
- To ensure an approach which reflects the diverse society in which we live.
- To provide an active learning environment where sound basic skills and concepts are developed and the foundations laid for the National Curriculum.
- To provide the opportunities for children to develop.
In order to achieve these aims, we need to take into account that young children differ from each other in personal characteristics, levels of maturity, intellectual development, range of experience and in the ability to cope in social situations. Every child is individual and unique.
