Ethos
Greenfield Little School provides a springboard for healthy first steps. All children are welcomed and valued and our nurturing environment and outstanding facilities support children to achieve their best from their unique starting point. We pride ourselves on our provision of exceptional pastoral care that fosters a love of learning through exploration, fun and challenge in a safe place. We recognise the importance of creativity, individuality, responsibility and a sense of community. Children at Greenfield Little School reap the benefits of our creative delivery of the Early Years Foundation Stage and have fun being equipped with the practical skills they will need in later life.
Aims
In partnership with Greenfield Little School families, we aim to:
- Inspire and motivate children, enabling them to achieve their potential
- Discover and develop passion
- Identify and foster talent
- Encourage independence and resilience in our children
- Develop critical thinking and problem solving skills
- Empower children to be active members of the local and wider community
- Create authentic, responsible and empathetic children who impart kindness, generosity and compassion
Greenfield Little School offers 50.4 weeks of care to all children aged 6 months to 3 years. At the beginning of the term after which children turn three, children will join Robins class and may, if desired, switch to a term-time only provision.
Robins (Orange and Red) are our pre-school classes for 3 and 4-year-olds and they are led by qualified Early Years Practitioners who follow the Early Years Foundation Stage. In these classes, we combine the convenience of a 50-week provision (for those who prefer a year-round arrangement) with the educational stimulation that many 3+ year olds are ready for.
Most 'Little Schoolers' transition into Reception at Greenfield School in the September before their fifth birthday, and take with them the skills and confidence they have gained under the care of our Little School staff.
