Welcome To Climbing Bears Pre School
Early Learning Through Play

Children experience a nurturing and inclusive environment where they feel safe, valued and
develop a strong sense of belonging. Staff promote a welcoming and respectful culture in
which all children, including those with special educational needs and/or disabilities, and
those from disadvantaged backgrounds are supported effectively. As a result, children settle
quickly and form secure, trusting relationships with adults and their peers.

Children grow in confidence and develop strong communication and language skills. Staff
plan the curriculum thoughtfully, with a clear and consistent focus on extending children's
vocabulary and supporting language development across all areas of learning. Staff
interactions are purposeful and well timed, enabling children to express themselves clearly
and engage fully in their play and learning. For example, staff support children to initiate play
in the role-play area but then step back to allow children to develop independence.
Consequently, children develop the skills and confidence they need to be well prepared for
the next stage of their education.

Children form strong trusting relationships with staff, who know them well and respond
sensitively to their individual needs. Children's emotional wellbeing is a clear priority and this
underpins their confidence to explore, play and learn. The strong partnership with parents
ensures children are consistently supported, while leadership's high expectations for
learning help children to develop independence, resilience and positive attitudes to learning.
As a result, children thrive both personally and academically.
