What it's like

Leaders and staff have an extremely high ambition for what children can achieve as they progress through each of the five rooms. This means that all children are fully equipped with all the essential skills and knowledge they need to succeed with their next development milestone and when they start school. The curriculum is precisely mapped out so children can continuously build on what they already know understand and can do.
