Our Curriulum
At The Waterbrook School, we inspire boundless curiosity and a passion for learning. We embrace a tailored approach that recognises each child as a unique individual full of intelligence, curiosity, and interests. Our curriculum for nursery is grounded in the Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS), while our primary school curriculum follows the British national curriculum. Both curricula incorporate elements of Nigerian culture and history while integrating play-based learning for holistic development.
Using the 3 I’s—Intention, Implementation, and Impact—we ensure effective practices and monitor progress. This continuous evaluation empowers children to thrive academically, socially, and emotionally.
We are dedicated to shaping confident, curious learners ready for the future.
Key Aspects:
The Role of the Child: We empower children to be active participants in their own learning journey. They are encouraged to explore, inquire, and construct knowledge through hands-on experiences.
The Role of the Educator: Our educators serve as facilitators, actively listening to children's ideas and interests, and guiding them in their learning pursuits. They inspire curiosity, research new topics, and scaffold learning experiences tailored to each child's needs.
The Role of the Environment: We believe the learning environment plays a crucial role in children's development. Our classrooms are thoughtfully designed to promote creativity, communication, and exploration. We incorporate open-ended resources and outdoor spaces to stimulate imagination, critical thinking, and problem-solving skills.
Cultural Integration: The Waterbrook celebrates the rich diversity of Nigerian culture and history. Through storytelling, music, art, and language, we provide children with opportunities to learn about their heritage while fostering a sense of pride and belonging.
