At Busy Bees Preschool we believe that our most valuable resource we can provide for children is warm sensitive adults, who know the children well and can provide the right mix of child led versus adult led play opportunities. We take a 'stages not ages' approach and therefore children's opportunities are never limited by their chronological age or expected to do things they are not developmentally ready for yet.


At Busy Bees preschool our children come from a diverse range of cultural and socio-economic backgrounds; however we make no assumptions about children's life experiences an aim to expand all children's cultural capital by providing as wide a range of opportunities as we are able which boosts vocabulary and enriches children's lives.

We include parents in their child's learning from the very first day and use Tapestry online platform to share learning and key moments with parents, and encourage parents participation too.


SEND

Children who may not be meeting expected development or just need a little extra help are supported by our experienced SENCO and staff team. Each child will have there own unique support plan using both supported participation in targeted interventions along with lots of play based strategies. See our SEN Information plan for further details


Our Key Person system

All children at Busy Bees are allocated with a Key Person when they start,  which are arranged broadly by age. This allows each key person to be an advocate for their age group during planning discussions and is responsible for ensuring the individual needs are being met.


Our routine

As well as lots of opportunities for children to play and explore throughout the day we also provide carefully planned adult supported small and large group activities.
