The Forest School Way

Staff observe subtle patterns of behaviour so that they can identify the most suitable strategies to support and challenge learning and provide higher levels of opportunities for children to grow and develop.

 

Children learn in different ways called schemas. Through observation and reflection the staff team are able to create individual programmes for children that focus on their way of learning and enable them to have a deeper understanding of the world around them.

Learning to cook develops more than just practical skills. Children develop fine motor skills, hand and eye co-ordination in addition to early concepts of maths and science.
