Curriculum & Approach
At Orange Seeds Nursery, the curriculum combines Montessori and British educational principles to deliver a rich, culturally diverse learning experience. The programme is designed to foster independence, hands-on exploration and school readiness, following the EYFS framework while remaining Montessori-inspired in its approach to child-led learning. Younger children engage in sensory-based activities such as gathering, filling, emptying, stacking and transferring objects, which build fine motor skills and prepare them for more structured preschool learning. As children progress into the Pre-school and Foundation Stage classes, they are introduced to Jolly Phonics, sensory sandpaper alphabet symbols, and numeracy activities that link numeric symbols to quantities through artistic and hands-on tasks. In the Foundation Stage 1 and 2 classes, children work within the seven EYFS learning areas, moving through a daily work cycle either individually or in groups. Teachers observe each child's progress closely to determine readiness for the next stage, while literacy, numeracy, social skills and emotional development are all built up in preparation for primary school.
