Early Years and Infant Campus is purpose-built for the youngest learners. It offers a splash pool, sensory walkways, a rooftop garden, dedicated outdoor spaces, and playgrounds with climbing apparatus for exploration. Students have access to a large library, music rooms, and a DREAMS lab as part of the learning environment. The campus was opened in 2018 by The Right Honourable Lord Puttnam of Queensgate. Parents can follow progress through Seesaw, an online learning journal that provides weekly photos, videos, and updates.
Outdoor spaces support physical development and active play. The splash pool and rooftop garden provide spaces for movement and coordination. The playgrounds include climbing apparatus and dedicated outdoor spaces designed for exploration and active learning. Outdoor features are complemented by cycle tracks and other elements described as outdoor classrooms.
The Early Years curriculum is the British EYFS, taught in Pre-Nursery, Nursery, and Reception. The seven learning and development areas are: communication and language; physical development; personal, social and emotional development; literacy; maths; understanding the world; expressive arts and design. The environment includes a large library, music rooms, and a DREAMS lab. Lessons also include art, music and language sessions.
The end-of-day enrichment programme offers a variety of activities, including construction, music and movement, mindful colouring, and discovering science. There is also a Disney craft club. The enrichment programme supports creative and exploratory learning beyond classroom hours.
