Our Curriculum
At Preschool 345 we have a curriculum to inspire our children with an enthusiasm for life-long learning.
Every child matters therefore our curriculum is responsive and adaptable to meet diverse needs to ensure all our children succeed.
We aim high for every child, building on what we know about them we set ambitious goals and through our enabling, stimulating environment our experienced practitioners support and motivate them to learn what they need to succeed.
A child’s work is play, give children the opportunity to explore and take ownership of their world they will learn, at 345 we ensure our environment is welcoming and accessible with lots opportunity for child led learning.
Every child has an experienced key person who ensures each child is cared and nurtured so that they feel safe and secure, our practitioners offer a mix of different approaches of teaching from modelling, observing and guided adult led activities. We notice what our children can do and build on this knowledge to ensure we have meaningful interactions with them.
