Curriculum & Approach
Sesame World Academy Nursery bases its programme on the UK EYFS framework combined with Montessori principles, supported by elements of a Core Knowledge approach that outlines foundational content in language, mathematics, science, history, geography, music and the visual arts. The aim is to help every child build logical reasoning skills while enjoying creative art, music, dance, carpet time and storytelling. Learning is designed to be developmentally appropriate, recognising that children grow and learn in different ways and at different paces. Activities are structured to help inquisitive young minds flourish through exploration, questioning and investigation, with an emphasis on 'Play with Purpose' that builds character, teamwork, tolerance and cultural understanding. Beyond the core curriculum, children can take part in a range of extracurricular activities, including instrument lessons (piano, violin, harp, guitar, drums), Gym Bobs, yoga, Zumba, arts and crafts, French and Spanish language sessions, musical movement, and Islamic and Qur'an recitation.

The Researchers and Inventors group caters for children aged 2 to 3 years, encouraging natural curiosity through pretend play, music, arts and physical activities such as dance, yoga and gym. The Explorers and Investigators group, for children aged 3 to 4 years, offers varied weekly activities that inspire children to question, explore, discover and grow as they prepare for the next stage of their education.
