Singing Birds Nursery follows the British EYFS framework, which underpins its planning for physical development, communication and language, personal and social-emotional growth, mathematics and understanding of the world. This is combined with the nursery's Curiosity Approach accreditation, gained as the first international nursery to achieve this recognition, which encourages open-ended questions, loose parts play and calm, neutral learning spaces designed to spark wonder and independent thinking. The nursery also draws inspiration from Montessori and Reggio Emilia philosophies, incorporating nature into everyday activities to support children's motor skills, coordination, imagination and creative thinking. Classrooms have been transformed into safe, uncluttered environments where children can build relationships with peers and engage freely with their surroundings. Teachers take a child-led approach, observing individual interests and using these to guide activities, believing that children learn best when they are genuinely engaged. The overall aim is to nurture curious, confident thinkers and doers who are well prepared for the transition into formal schooling.
