Our Ethos 

 At Meanwood Valley Pre-school, we are committed to offering your child the best education and therefore practitioners ensure that we keep abreast of current thinking in Early Years. 

Meanwood Valley Pre-school adopted the Reggio Emilia Approach to learning in 2016. Reggio Emilia is an innovative and inspiring approach to early childhood education, which values the child as a strong, capable and resilient learner; rich with wonder, motivation and knowledge. The approach understands that every child brings with them a deep curiosity and potential. It is this innate curiosity that drives the children’s interests and gives them the ability to understand their world and their place within it. We support children to extend and inspire their own learning experiences by working collaboratively with caring and supportive adults who understand how to develop their skills and understanding. 

At Meanwood Valley Pre-school we understand that there is no ‘one size fits all’ education and we pride ourselves in empowering all our children to be individuals. Our experienced and qualified practitioners are able to tailor the children’s program of education to their personal learning styles. This method of teaching ensures that the children make excellent progress during their time with us. We are proud to offer an education that celebrates children’s diversity and individualism. 

We have an open-door policy so if you ever want to discuss anything at all, please do not hesitate to talk to a member of the team.
