Welcome
At Ark John Keats Academy, our nursery teachers work together to foster a love of learning for all children. We believe in creating a safe, stimulating and exciting environment that builds on each individuals wants, needs and interests.
Our nursery provides a friendly, welcoming environment for all our infants from ages 3 and up - and a perfect start ahead of primary school. We offer free morning or afternoon sessions, Monday to Friday, for three hours each. Our morning sessions run from 8:25-11:25 and our afternoon sessions are 12:25-15:25. Both sessions include food and water as a mid-session snack. In total, we have 52 places for 2023, split evenly between the morning and afternoon sessions.
We deliver a rich and diverse curriculum of structured and focused activities alongside child-initiated, play-based learning. We use Circle Time and a range of inspiring stories to encourage personal and emotional growth, enabling children to develop strong and meaningful relationships with adults and their peers.
We want children to be happy, confident and independent learners who leave our Early Years as resilient, reflective and respectful individuals with a passion for learning.
