Child development and curriculum

Our curriculum is based around the six early learning goals identified by Ofsted:
- Personal, social and emotional development
- Communication, language and literacy
- Problem solving, numeracy and reasoning
- Creative development
- Physical development
- Knowledge and understanding of the world



Half-termly themes and topics such as growth, journeys and stories and rhymes provide a focus for a wide range of activities which encourage and enable the children to play together and learn.

Throughout the year we enjoy visits from local professionals (recently a vet, a fireman and a pilot), and mark occasions and festivals from all around the world with special events, performances and projects. We also organize one trip out of Pre-School per term, most recently for a special story-time at a local library.
