Choose Little People!

We hope that you find the information here informative in making a very important decision, that of choosing the care and education of your child.
 
We have programmes for children of all ages and summarise them briefly below:

We care for children from 6 weeks-14 years old at one of our six locations within Darlington and Stockton, three are full daycare.

We have created beautiful new baby and toddler rooms for educational growth and development.

Our Nursery aged children learn to play "the Montessori way" with a Qualified Primary School Teacher directing the teaching and   curriculum. Our curriculum is inspired by Montessori but we are not a purist Montessori school.

We have 2 EYPs (Early Years Professionals) qualified now to lead quality practice and 3 more beginning their training.

Nursery aged children will be taught in a 1:8 ratio in a Nursery Class setting.

All of the children will have access to learning an additional      language.
After school children will have opportunities for programmes taught by specialists to include ART, Drama, Dance, Language and Sports.
