GENERAL INFORMATION

The British School Nursery is an educational learning environment for 3 to 4 year old children in the heart of New Delhi. With the National Curriculum for England as our guide, we use the Early Years Foundation Stage to lead our programme and provide a stimulating and educational curriculum for young, inquisitive minds. We recognise the value of play during these formative years and through a planned weekly programme, provide a variety of fun and positive experiences. This reinforces the development of skills in a supportive environment, enabling us to assist your child in all areas of learning.

The British School Nursery is located within the grounds of The British School. We have 5,000 square feet of space dedicated to the education and care of our nursery children in safe and secure surroundings. Our learning environment has been designed to reflect The British School educational philosophy, with the highest quality furniture and resources sourced from overseas and local suppliers
 

The British Nursery runs two sessions each day; Monday to Friday, with 20 children in each session. The morning sessions are from 8 am to 11 am and the afternoon sessions from 11:45 am to 2:45 pm. We will endeavour to place your child in the session that you indicate as your first preference; however this will depend on availability.
                                                                                            
THE EXPERIENCE
Our day will provide your child with activities within a structured routine whilst maintaining flexibility to meet individual needs. Due to our small group size and high staff to student ratios, your child will be able to develop close and loving relationships with teachers and peers. These relationships will be built during individual, small and large group experiences in addition to the routines of the day. The daily schedule is planned in accordance with group and individual learning objectives. These will be met through a variety of daily activities that will be designed to give the children a balance between teacher-led and child-initiated learning experiences. Each day will be planned for, within the indoor and outdoor play environments.

SPECIAL EDUCATION NEEDS
The Nursery welcomes students with moderate learning difficulties, provided we have the means to support them adequately. Moderate learning difficulties are extra learning needs that can be met in the mainstream class through differentiated learning.

STAFF
The Nursery staff includes both overseas and locally trained teachers and support staff. With a ratio of one staff member to every 4 children, your child will be cared for and supported in a very personal and individualised environment.
