The opportunities available at Primrose Nursery / Preschool give each child the chance to develop their experiences and learning skills at their own pace and to their full potential.

Primrose operates within the ‘Early Years Foundation Stage’ with a holistic approach to learning and considers creativity as a key component to children’s development.

This is a framework which recognizes the individual development and learning of each unique child. The emphasis is on learning through play opportunities, interaction with people and exploration of the world around them. The framework identifies the individual efforts and achievements of children and that learning and development take place in all areas of a child’s day. Our building design, room layouts, furniture, resources and outdoor play areas ensure that children of all age groups and abilities have constant access and free choice to the many areas that support their learning and development.

Activities are planned, evaluated and implemented to ensure a wide variety of experiences. Children at Primrose Nursery /Preschool lead their play, choose the play and tell us what they would like to do next. Staff sensitively build upon children’s own interests, helping them to engage in activities and reach their full potential. Our professional team know how to support play at all ages and stages of your child’s development. The partnership with parents, which characterizes the Primrose ethos, is especially important to us.

Good parent-teacher communication is crucial at this stage in a child’s education and effectiveness and joy of learning are enhanced when home and nursery come together.
