“Every child deserves the best possible start in life and the support that enables them to fulfil their potential. Children develop quickly in the early years and a child’s experiences between birth and age five have a major impact on their future life chances. A secure, safe and happy childhood is important in its own right. Good parenting and high quality early learning together provide the foundation children need to make the most of their abilities and talents as they grow up.”

At St Philip’s, we value each individual child and we aim for each child to grow up, learn and thrive in a safe environment. We provide opportunities for children to discover and explore through creative, engaging and challenging activities within the indoor and outdoor classroom environments that enable child-led learning. We believe that having a strong relationship between home and school benefits children and helps them to have a smooth transition into Reception. The team works hard to help children settle into school and get to know the children well which enables us to plan our curriculum based on children’s needs and interests.
