Our Curriculum...
What we want our children to learn.

At Cressington Manor Nursery, we take pride in offering an inspiring and engaging curriculum that sparks a love for learning. With a strong emphasis on developing language, communication, and vocabulary, our curriculum is designed around stories, songs, and playful games to create a fun and language-rich environment. We aim to nurture a genuine passion for reading, with a carefully structured and sequenced approach that ensures all children experience progressive development. Our topic-based approach provides flexibility, allowing our creative practitioners to adapt lessons to meet each child’s individual needs and interests. We believe that children learn best when they are actively engaged and motivated through meaningful play experiences. Our play-based model is aligned with children's developmental stages, recognizing that every child learns at their own pace and in their own way. Using a "Book as a Hook" to anchor learning each week, our curriculum creates endless opportunities for children to practice language and communication skills, expand their vocabulary, and foster a deep love of reading. These experiences are essential for building confident, strong learners, well-prepared for the next stages of their educational journey
