Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS)

The Early Years Team

Our knowledgeable team are friendly and approachable and enjoy working in partnership with parents to ensure their children feel happy and safe, and are provided with the best possible start to their school journey.
We are available before and after school for quick catch ups, and are flexible in arranging longer meetings for more in depth discussions.
Hadley, our Early Years Lead, is always happy to talk or meet new and existing parents to discuss all aspects of the Early Years at Virginia.
Appointments can be made via the school office.

Our Values

Inclusion, Growth, Empowerment and Adventure

​We have designed every aspect of our curriculum with these values in mind to create a happy and productive learning experience for our all children.

We take a thematic approach to our curriculum, which involves revolving our learning around half termly topics such as ‘Journeys’ or ‘Growing’.

​​We carefully structure our day to balance short adult-led learning, with longer child-led learning sessions.

​Our child-led learning sessions are called ‘free flow’ and this is where children can challenge themselves and follow their curiosity as they play in our enriching and inspiring environments.

​Our highly experienced and knowledgable staff team skilfully interact with children during these times to extend learning and maximise developmental progress.
