The principles that guide the work of our Early Years Professionals are grouped into four themes:
A unique child – every child is a competent leaner from birth who can be resilient, capable, confident and self-assured
Positive Relationships – children learn to be strong and independent from a base of loving and secure relationships with parents and/or key person
Enabling Environments – the environment plays a key role in supporting and extending children’s development and learning
Learning and Development – children develop and learn in different ways and at different times; all areas of learning and development are equally important and inter-connected.
There are seven areas of learning in which our Early Years Professionals support children to learn and develop. These are:
- Personal, social and emotional development
- Communication and language
- Physical development
- Knowledge and understanding of the world
- Literacy
- Mathematics
- Expressive arts and design
Our nursery managers are qualified Early Years Teachers and work with Room Leaders to devise tailored, stimulating and enriching curriculums. Activity planning is always on display in each room so parents can see what their child is doing from day to day.
