NURSERY

Children from 2 – 4 years are taught in differentiated groups within Nursery 1 and Nursery 2. The children learn through purposeful planned play activities and the flexible structure of the department allows pupils to work at a pace appropriate to their abilities as they progress through the EYFS framework. The fluidity offered by the Nursery ensures that a child can begin more advanced work when he / she is ready to do so. Early registration is advised to reserve a place on the waiting list.
