Early Years Foundation Unit

Our Early Years Foundation Unit offers your child the best start to their education. We provide our children with exciting and challenging experiences, allowing them freedom in a safe environment to explore and play.

We are passionate about open-ended and creative resources as we believe that children engage in their most meaningful learning when their imagination and curiosity is encouraged and allowed to flourish.

Reviews from the Children and Parents

School Visitor

Lauren's Assembly in April 2022 "Thank you for such a warm welcome, for the children's excellent behaviour and such thoughtful questions".

Y6 Parent

Reading at Moorside "I think the teachers are doing a fantastic job with reading. I believe the access children have to other forms e.g. Reading Plus etc means they are less likely to be bored and then choose to read a book as entertainment".

Mason, Year 3

Reading at Moorside "I love hearing stories from my teacher and choosing books out of the library".
