Nursery and Reception

At Poolsbrook Primary Academy, our Early Years is where the journey starts and environment is a vibrant hub of learning and exploration, meticulously crafted around our young learners. Rooted in our enquiry-based curriculum, it nurtures curiosity and creativity, fostering a love for learning. We prioritise the child's individuality, creating a supportive atmosphere where they thrive academically and emotionally, laying a strong foundation for their future education.

We offer 15 hours free nursery provision for qualifying families and children then transition into our Reception classes in the year they turn 5 year old. Our curriculum for the Early Years is based on the EYFS Framework with a balance of adult directed and child initiated learning both indoors and outdoors. Learning is based centred around strong interactions with adults and a focus on developing language and early reading skills.
