Our Early Years Vision

In the Early Years at BCPA the staff are committed to providing a safe, nurturing and happy place where every child is known and valued and where differing needs are acknowledged, accepted and met.

We encourage each child to be independent and develop a sense of responsibility for themselves and respect others and the environment.
We provide stimulating and challenging environments both inside and outside, these are planned carefully with a range of activities that will engage the children, develop their skills and foster interests and their curiosity.
We enable the children to develop a positive attitude and a love of learning that will support them through their life, reaching their full potential.

We believe it is vital to support the development of the children’s confidence and resilience and teach them about their emotions and feelings, giving them a ‘tool kit’ to manage their feelings effectively.
We value and incorporate all aspects of the children’s lives, building a strong partnership with feeder nurseries, parents and carers and members of the community.
We recognise the importance of early phonics and maths, we deliver this through a balance of precision teaching as well as practical activities that support the learning
We offer a supportive induction programme to reception that begins in the summer term before the children start. In September it comprises of a two-week part-time induction routine before starting full time after 3 weeks.
