Early Years Foundation Stage

The Early Years are where a lifelong love of learning begins. Through play, exploration and our Forest School programme, our youngest children build confidence, friendships and the early language, number and social skills that everything else rests on. We work closely with parents so that every child settles happily and feels at home from their very first day.

Lower Primary

In Lower Primary, children grow into confident readers, writers and mathematicians. Inquiry units connect learning to the world around them — from testing natural materials in Forest School to comparing Malawi with Antarctica — while weekly ICT and practical work build curiosity and independence.
