Preschool is open 9.00 am to 3.00 pm during Redbridge School Terms (https://www.redbridge.gov.uk/schools/term-dates/). Your child can stay all day bringing their own packed lunch or just for a 3-hour session (9am-12 noon or 12 noon to 3pm). Our staff are all very experienced and well qualified. Preschool also works with institutes, colleges and secondary schools for the practical aspect of early year's of studies and schools for work experience.
Our premises consist of three large halls and a secure and safe outdoor play area with an all-weather porous surface. We believe children benefit when there is a partnership involving the Pre-School and their parents so we aim to encourage parental involvement in their child's development and education and support parents as their child's first educator. Please see our prospectus for further information. |
