Early Years

The first EtonHouse school started here on this campus in 1995. It is here that this unique approach and pedagogy came to life, advocating for children’s learning through inquiry, exploration and joyful experiences. With our first graduates now in the workforce, we continue to embrace and nurture this pedagogy. 

Programme Highlights

  • Catering to students from Nursery 2* (age 3) and up
  • IB Primary Years Programme with a strong focus on conceptual inquiry that is transdisciplinary
  • Following the developmental stages of the UK’s Early Years Foundation Stage, our highly qualified educators design differentiated experiences to support the individual needs of each learner
  • We offer our youngest learners their own age-appropriate play space that seamlessly connects with their indoor and outdoor learning
  • The Early Years Garden and classrooms are set up with Reggio Emilia-inspired provocations, facilitating the image of the child through the hundred languages of children
  • Children access exciting Specialists lessons in PE, Art, Music, Drama, Library

Our Pre-School Programme

The EtonHouse Broadrick Pre-School curriculum brings together best practices to engage curious young minds in exploring, learning, and discovering in a safe and happy environment. Our inquiry-based approach nurtures positive attitudes essential for learning, while developing your child’s social, self-management, research, thinking, and communication skills. We value your child as a competent learner, and this translates to creating a warm diverse environment where collaborative learning, curiosity and creativity naturally flourish.

Inquiry – a multi-sensory experience

Inspired by the Reggio-Emilia approach, we thoughtfully design the environment to offer rich opportunities for multi-sensory inquiry– essential for your child in their early years. Our young learners are often deeply engaged in exploring natural materials like sand, water, pebbles, leaves, shells and tree barks, along with various other materials including paints, clay, light tables, fabric, blocks, magnetic toys, puppets, books, writing and art tools, scientific and mathematical resources.

Developing social skills through mixed peer interaction

Your child will have the opportunity to play and interact with varying age groups and be supported by their older peers in the playgrounds as well as classroom inquiries. This is the vibrant and supportive nature of the community at EtonHouse Broadrick. Whether it is ensuring the safety of our pre-schoolers or bringing in tadpoles from the field for classroom inquiries, the primary school students play a big role in nurturing and role-modeling for our young inquirers!

An engaging and enriching curriculum

Over the year, our pre-schoolers engage in four or six units of inquiry that are conceptually rich and transdisciplinary, following the framework of the IB Primary Years Programme (IBPYP). These inquiries cover the disciplines of English, Mathematics, Science, Social Studies, Arts, Personal, Social and Physical Education, offering authentic and relevant context for our young learners to explore and grow.

Through our balanced curriculum, we offer myriad opportunities for our children to read, write, count, measure, experiment, express and create.

One of our true strengths lies in our language lessons – Mandarin, Hindi, Japanese and English as an Additional Language. Conducted for half an hour, five times a week, our classes provide our children with a rich context for language learning while giving them the opportunity to explore different cultures through the lenses of the language. In the process, they develop a sense of international mindedness.

The exciting Specialists lessons – PE, Art, Music, Library, ICT – aim to support the classroom inquiries and ensure a well-rounded, holistic development for our children.
