When parents choose an Early Years centre, they want to know that their children will be safe and will thrive. Harrow International School Early Years Centre provides a safe and secure environment in which very young children can grow and learn. Our staff are responsible for ensuring the development and learning for the children in their care by fostering positive, respectful and supportive relationships with both children and parents.

How children learn and how we can enable this learning for each child as an individual is at the heart of everything we do here at the Harrow Early Years Centre.

In the Early Years Centre, children's learning experiences through play are encouraged and developed across a wide range of provision areas, both indoors and outdoors. In addition to the crèche area and classrooms the centre houses it's own dining room, music room, soft play room, multi-purpose room (for PE, games, assemblies and meetings), a Thai cultural room and large outdoor areas with sandpits, water play areas and a range of adventure playground equipment for each age group.

Children's learning areas are large, well planned and appropriate to the age and needs of the children. Classrooms are set up to encourage young children's natural play behaviour and allow free access to a wide range of resources.

Throughout the week children experience a balance of opportunities to learn, through their own initiated play in the provision areas continuously available to them and through adult led class or group activities. This balance changes as children mature and move through from Pre-K to K1 and then up to K2. Developing learning needs are taken into consideration with regards to environment, resources, challenges set and daily routines.
