At Reddish Vale Nursery School, we provide stimulating and exciting learning experiences for children aged 2 4 years old, which are scaffolded by an experienced and compassionate team. We work hard to make children feel safe and happy, to have aspirations and feel valued through inclusive practice delivered in a caring and well-resourced environment.
Children, parents, staff and governors work together in partnership sharing ideas to ensure we continue to reach high expectations and offer the best opportunities for all. Reddish Vale Nursery School is a very special Nursery.
We provide the building blocks for every child to create strong foundations in their learning and development to help them flourish into lifelong learners. Staff follow the children's interests and development stage to create exciting learning experiences using 'In the Moment' planning.
Our reactive team respond and enhance the children's learning through questioning and further enhancements to extend their learning.
