Learning & Development

Pupils need a variety of learning opportunities if they are to achieve their full potential.

Most of our pupils will join our school in nursery or kindergarten. They learn in different ways and through varying rates of progress. In the course of learning children develop their skills through a variety of processes that are equally important and interconnected.

Play is an essential part of a child’s learning and we promote this through supervised breaks in the school day. Play reflects a child’s wide range of interests and develops further learning. Our pupils have access to a well equipped school field, playground and pre-school play area with both indoor and outside opportunities for early years.
