Brook Early Years

There are seven areas of learning and development that shape our educational programmes. Three areas are particularly crucial for igniting children's curiosity and enthusiasm for learning, and for building their capacity to learn, form relationships and thrive. We also support children in four specific areas, through which the three prime areas are strengthened and applied.

Part of the requirements of children being in an Early Years Setting is to document a child's progress through the form of a 'Learning Journey'. Up until now we have used a paper format, after careful consideration and much research we have decided to create individual 'Learning Journeys' for your child through a piece of educational software called 'Tapestry'.

Pre-school offers many benefits - it can be a great place for kids to interact with peers and learn valuable life lessons such as how to share, take turns, and follow rules. It also can prepare them for school and beyond. But going to pre-school does come with its fair share of emotions, for both the parent and the child.

We operate a waiting list for your child from any age, and recommend you book your place as early as possible (in the pram is not too soon!). PLEASE NOTE: Due to such high demand, we now only have an intake in September.

Should you be looking to start your child with us as soon as possible, please follow up your waiting list application with an email enquiring about availability otherwise your child will be placed on the next available waiting list.Personal details collected from this application are not retained should you be removed from the waiting list.

We have a comprehensive pricing range designed to help parents in all circumstances. The Governement are offering eligible two year olds up to 15 hours of early education per week, for 38 weeks (term times) from the term after your child's second birthday. This funding will continue until your child is able to claim their three year old place, available for all children.
