Our Values

Footprints Nursery provides an holistic curriculum, which seeks to develop the whole child and is underpinned by the ‘Footprint Values’:

Our Intent

Intent- 

The intent of our curriculum is to ensure that every child develops the skills, knowledge, and attitudes they need to thrive while with us. We are committed to nurturing a love of learning through high levels of engagement, drawing on each child’s interests, strengths, and individual needs.

Implementation- 

Our curriculum is delivered through a carefully considered balance of direct teaching and purposeful play within a rich, stimulating environment. Children build sequential knowledge and skills through both structured learning and hands-on exploration. High-quality adult interactions support and extend children's thinking, enabling them to make meaningful connections and develop cumulative understanding over time.

Impact- 

Each child flourishes and makes progress from their unique starting points, developing into curious, creative, and confident learners who are willing to take on challenges. Their journey is captured in Learning Journals, celebrating their development and supporting a smooth transition to the next phase of education.
