Pre-School Curriculum

Early Years Foundation Stage (ages 2 – 4)

In Pre-School, we have an exciting, child-centred curriculum which is focused around our school values and teaching children good basic skills.

All children learn best from experiences that are suitable for their stage of development. Play is key to the way young children learn.

Through play, we ensure children develop confidence for learning, social skills and the basic skills needed for reading, writing and maths, as well as skills for the foundation subjects.

Our Reception pupils follow the Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS) curriculum and our Primary Phase Big Learning Question approach.

In Pre-School, we teach phonics through the Twinkl phonics SSP (systematic synthetic phonics) programme.
