Vision
In EYFS, we believe that children learn best through practical, hands on experiences in a nurturing and stimulating environment. The best outcomes for children’s learning is where they are in charge, leading the way, exploring their interests and developing a depth of understanding with the support of an adult. This, intertwined with focused learning tasks where adults are guiding the learning, is EYFS at GPPS. We aim to provide a safe, inclusive environment with a welcoming atmosphere, giving our families a sense of belonging and our children the confidence to grow and learn.
At GPPS we believe in ‘Putting Children First!’
