Alderley Edge Pre-School Grow.Explore.Discover.

Mission Statement

Alderley Edge Pre-School is a registered charity supported by a board of committee members, we are committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of our children and expects all staff, volunteers and visitors to share this commitment.

 Our focus is to ensure that every child is offered equal opportunities to be able to grow within our setting as individuals. We aim to offer a relaxed, welcoming and enriched environment which supports children’s desires to explore and discover as they learn and develop. 

Ethos

At Alderley Edge Pre School our curriculum is focused and centred around the individual child. We aim to embrace the interests of the children and be responsive to their curiosity and thinking. Our free flow indoor/outdoor approach and workshop style environment allows children the freedom to make choices and be an advocate of their own learning.

We hold high value towards the natural environment, this reflects within the ethos of our setting and has been a key factor in the development of our curriculum. Children are given the opportunity to explore, appreciate and understand the natural world, take & manage risks and ultimately develop a love for the outdoors. All children have access to an on-site enclosed woodland.

Practitioners are facilitators to children’s learning, their role is to observe, support & extend learning, offer meaningful opportunities and experiences whilst listening to the child  and tuning in to their needs and interests.
