Little Ripley Education
The well-being and safety of the children in our care is a priority, but we are also very mindful of the need to create an environment in which opportunities are provided that allow each child to learn, develop and reach their true potential.
For this we follow the statutory framework for the Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS), which we use to plan your child’s unique learning journey, based on their likes and interests. The Early Years Curriculum is incorporated into all our games and activities and the children learn without feeling under pressure. Whether they join us as babies, toddlers or pre-schoolers, we are confident that when our children move on, they will be happy, caring and successful.

Quality & Consistency
A high quality of educational provision is maintained throughout Little Ripley, so that every child makes good progress, and no child gets left behind.
Play underpins all development
Children learn using their senses, by getting involved and playing. As such, we plan fun, play based activities that focus on specific skills and areas of learning.
Working in Partnership
Children’s learning and development is enhanced by the strong relationships between our nursery practitioners and parents / carers. We are also proactive in sharing ways that you can support your child at home and join in activities that we run throughout the year, such as Science Week or World Book Day.
Blossom Educational
As a parent or carer, you will be kept up to date with your child’s individual learning journey through Blossom Educational. You can also contribute by sharing special occasions and milestones from home, which we love to celebrate together.
Child initiated and adult led activities
We recognise the value and importance of both child-initiated activities and adult-led learning. Accordingly, we use a combination of both to ensure varied and engaging learning experiences
Different Ways of Learning
Children develop and learn in different ways and at different rates. The framework covers the education and care of all children in early years provision, including children with special educational needs and disabilities.
