Our Pre-school room aim is to ensure the children are school ready – complete with book bags, phonics, handwriting practice and mathematical skills. This will include planned activities that meet the individual needs of the children covering the seven areas of learning, which is a requirement from our governing body Ofsted. These areas cover communication and listening skills, social skills, numerical skills, literacy skills and understanding of the world. Classroom activities are integrated into the nursery day for our three and four year old's. The reading scheme in operation is the Oxford Reading Tree, the most popular scheme in the UK.
