CURRICULUM FOR EXCELLENCE

At Nithsdale Road Nursery, we follow the Curriculum for Excellence for 3-18 years. The Curriculum for Excellence is firmly focused on the needs of the child and designed to enable them to develop into:

  • SUCCESSFUL LEARNERS
  • CONFIDENT INDIVIDUALS
  • RESPONSIBLE CITIZENS
  • EFFECTIVE CONTRIBUTORS 

Our Learning Environment is child centred. The Children are consulted and encouraged to express their views and therefore help shape their own learning experiences. They are involved in planning and recording their own learning. With sensitive adult support your child will learn how to make good, informed choices and take responsibility for his/her own learning.

The children are actively engaged in their learning which is interactive, purposeful and defined within the outcomes and experiences which are:

  • Health and Well Being
  • Literacy and English
  • Numeracy and Mathematics
  • Expressive Arts
  • Sciences
  • Social Studies
  • Technologies
  • Religious and Moral Education.

Literacy, Numeracy and Health and Well Being are central themes which run through all of our activities and help develop skills for learning, for life and for work.
