Curriculum & Staffing

Curriculum

All children attending Honey Bees will access The Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS), which sets the standards to be met through seven different learning areas and four main overarching principles. It is our aim to ensure our children learn and develop well through planning and monitoring of small step programs set by our qualified nursery teacher. We have access to a range of facilities including a sensory room, hydrotherapy pool and secure outside area.
