About us



Our team

 

• We are a dedicated, experienced and professional team, passionately committed to providing the best curriculum to prepare children for school. 

 

• As committed, permanent staff we guarantee stability for the children, who all have the same key person during their time with us.

 

• Our staff includes a qualified primary teacher for the pre-schoolers and a qualified music teacher.
   

• We recognise the crucial value of our relationships with parents, working in their mother tongue when we can.

 

• Each teacher teaches in her/his own language so the children associate a language with a teacher to avoid confusion. This is done in a small group or on an individual basis.

 

• Most our staff have extended safeguarding training and hold paediatric First Aid qualifications.

​

We have a secure and beautiful open space in a renovated old Coach House with direct access to our garden. The space is airy, spacious and bright. Our environment is well-prepared and structured. Well-planned resources are accessible and clearly displayed on our shelves.

Our Mission

 

• In an increasingly connected and globalised world, children are likely to encounter two or more languages regularly, if not every day. We believe that early exposure to languages helps children develop confidence, curiosity and strong communication skills.

 

• Many personal and social attributes and skills can be developed through the acquisition of another language: multiculturalism, communication skills, a lifelong love of social interaction, curiosity, eagerness to learn, adaptability, resourcefulness, respect for different cultures and traditions…broadening personal horizons.

 

• Research suggests that children who grow up with more than one language often develop strong problem-solving, pattern recognition and creative-thinking skills.

 

• Learning another language and understanding and appreciating different cultures from an early age, can provide children a huge head start and a strong foundation for future success.,
