Nursery

In Nursery, pupils begin to develop their personal, social, and emotional skills through nurturing relationships and daily routines. They learn to recognise and talk about their feelings, begin to understand the feelings of others, and explore how to manage emotions in a safe and supportive environment. Through play and group activities, children learn to take turns, share, and build friendships. They are encouraged to make choices, express preferences, and develop independence in caring for themselves. Topics such as healthy living, keeping safe, and understanding differences are introduced through stories, discussions, and real-life experiences, helping children to feel confident, valued, and part of a community.

Reception

In Reception, pupils build on their early experiences by exploring a range of themes that support their emotional well-being, social development, and understanding of the world around them. They learn about friendship, kindness, and how to resolve conflicts peacefully. Children are supported to set simple goals, show resilience, and celebrate their achievements. They explore healthy lifestyles, including food, exercise, and hygiene, and begin to understand how to keep themselves safe. Through structured sessions and everyday interactions, pupils develop a strong sense of self, learn to respect others, and begin to understand the importance of rules and responsibilities within a group or community
