Smaller groups can make a big difference in Early Years. With more time to notice the little things, practitioners can really get to know each child – what interests them, where they need encouragement and when they’re ready for their next challenge.

This welcoming nursery keeps small numbers of children within its rooms, creating a more personal environment where care and learning can be shaped around each child’s individual needs and stage of development. The focus is on helping children become confident, independent and curious learners, while making sure they feel secure and supported along the way.

And learning certainly isn’t limited to indoors. The outdoor play area becomes an extended classroom, offering a Forest School-style environment where children can explore, investigate, get messy, take on recent challenges and enjoy plenty of adventures.
