A warm and nurturing start to reception
At the beginning of each academic year, we simply cannot wait to embark on an exciting journey of early education in Reception! Our vibrant environment, specially designed for children aged 4 to 5, offers a warm and nurturing haven where children can take their first steps towards a bright future.
Nurturing young minds
In our two Reception classes, we understand the immense importance of the early years in shaping a child’s future. At Bishopsgate, we provide a loving and caring environment that values and supports each child, ensuring they feel cherished on their learning adventure. Our highly experienced staff guide learning through play, allowing every child to explore and flourish at their own pace.
Endless adventures in learning
We are proud to unleash boundless learning opportunities in our Reception curriculum. With a focus on the Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS) curriculum, we create a positive and enriched start to a child’s formative education. We are proud to attract and retain highly experienced teachers that follow the children’s interests, sparking their curiosity and igniting a thirst for knowledge that knows no limits.
A world of exploration awaits
In Reception, we immerse children in a rich and stimulating setting. Housed in the magnificent Windsor Building, specifically designed for our youngest learners, our classrooms are surrounded by a wealth of exciting facilities.
