Our Curriculum

Children begin learning about the world from the moment they are born. At Swanwick Pre-School, we build on this natural curiosity by providing engaging, age-appropriate experiences tailored to each stage of development.

We follow the Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS) framework, which supports learning across seven key areas:

Prime Areas

Communication & Language
Physical Development
Personal, Social & Emotional Development

Specific Areas

Literacy
Mathematics
Understanding the World
Expressive Arts & Design

Every activity is carefully planned to ensure children develop confidence, independence and a love of learning.

Learning Through Play

Play is at the heart of everything we do. Through hands-on exploration, creative activities and real-world experiences, children develop:

Problem-solving skills
Social confidence
Communication abilities
Physical coordination
Early reading, writing and maths skills

We also follow each child’s individual interests, adapting activities to keep learning meaningful, fun and inspiring.

Working in Partnership with Parents

We believe parents are a child’s first and most important educators.

We work closely with families by:

Sharing regular progress updates
Offering meetings and discussions about development
Encouraging parent involvement
Providing guidance and support when needed

Together, we help every child reach their full potential.

A Safe and Caring Environment

Your child’s wellbeing is our highest priority. We maintain strong safeguarding procedures and create a warm, welcoming atmosphere where children feel secure, valued and confident.
