Curriculum
Ages covered
Nursery schools provide places and deliver resources for children up to the age of five years. Children normally start at three, but many settings will cater for younger children too.
Generally ratios for children in a nursery school or class is between 20 and 26 children to two adults. This will include a qualified teacher and a nursery nurse or classroom assistant.
What's a nursery school?
A nursery school is separate from a school for older children, although it may feed into the larger setting. Nursery schools have trained heads, teachers, nursery nurses and classroom assistants.
Nursery schools have to be registered and inspected every year.
Nursery schools comply with the latest state specified early years curriculum. See early years information here.
Our nursery school curriculum
We believe that our work should allow young children to grow and flourish in a happy, caring and structured environment.
We are very proud of our diversity, richness of experience and enthusiasm at Church Hill. We use our skills and understanding to help our children explore the world around them, come to terms with difference and realise their own potential to the full.
Education is a team effort - for all our staff, volunteers and the children too. We help each other.
We aim to provide a stimulating and varied environment, where fun and learning come together in a caring atmosphere to prepare the children for adult life in the best way possible.
This is what our curriculum strives to do.
