Laying the foundations for them to thrive, now and in their future, with the confidence & tools to become lifelong lovers of learning

At Matford Brook Academy, we know that the earliest years of education are some of the most important in a child's life. We recognise that every child is special, bringing with them a range of unique experiences, and want to share the highest of aspirations with parents and carers for their child.

We are proud to provide a friendly and safe environment where children are supported, stimulated and challenged to reach their full potential.

We invest in highly qualified and trained staff, a state-of-the-art learning environment and the very best curriculum offer. By doing so, we know that our children will move on to Reception confidently and with an enjoyment of school. Our aspiration is for every child to 'write their story' - to learn who they are, to find their voice and to be active participants in their life - and this starts from the very first day in Nursery or Preschool.

We describe Early Years at Matford Brook Academy as Chapter One of our all-through school, the beginning of 'writing our story'.

We are committed to the following in Chapter One:

• A broad and balanced curriculum to give children a range of knowledge and skills needed for great progress through school and life;
• Quality and consistency in teaching and learning so that no child gets left behind;
• Close, proactive relationships between staff and with parents/carers, including home visits before they start in Nursery/Preschool or Reception;
• Every child supported and included.

Applications for Nursery and Preschool places are now open. We would love to hear from you and begin to #writeourstory together.
