Magdalen Court School

Magdalen Court School believes EVERY child is special. Our philosophy is to endeavour to develop the full potential of each child by teaching a carefully prepared curriculum. This is achieved by incorporating traditional methods alongside a progressive, modern approach.

Our aim is for a high academic performance, which is carefully structured to help the less able achieve success. Every child deserves the best possible education.

Our Mission

Our mission is to provide excellence in childcare at a nursery which offers a safe, nurturing environment that fosters the healthy growth and development of our children.

Our Philosophy

The Nursery follows a philosophy of "learning through play" In "learning through play," not only are pre-reading pre writing and pre-math skills developed, but social and physical skills are developed as well. "Learning through play" emphasizes all aspects of your child's development this is the prevailing view of childcare professionals today and is backed by extensive research in child development.

This approach recognizes that even the youngest children look, listen, and learn. Because most young children learn most effectively in the company of other children through play activities that are also educational. This educational approach emphasizes the importance of individual attention to children: every child learns in his or her own time. To learn successfully, young children need to develop confidence in their own abilities. Our staff values individual expression and responds to the individual needs and abilities of your child. When your child leaves our Nursery, ideally he or she is ready to succeed in school. We believe quality child care is not expensive, it’s priceless.

Our Facilities

Our nursery is large and spacious and has been carefully refurbished to the highest standards for childcare. It is designed to provide an environment which is stimulating, comfortable and secure. The rooms are specially set-up just for the children and fully equipped for all their needs.
