Our Curriculum
Learning that grows with your child
Our curriculum is designed from birth to five years and is tailored to each room and stage of development.
Our approach combines carefully planned adult-led experiences with child-initiated play. Our curriculum is based around the children’s interests to ensure this remains engaging for them.
We follow the Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS) and provide an ambitious yet balanced programme of learning.
