5 Facts EY - 5 Facts EY

The early years of a child’s life are an exciting journey filled with discovery, growth, and wonder. At The British School Warsaw, we believe that this journey sets the foundation for a lifetime of learning. Our Early Years campus offers an exceptional environment where children are supported to explore, imagine, and thrive. Here are the five key reasons why The British School Warsaw is the ideal place to begin your child’s educational adventure.

1. Leading the Way in Health and Wellbeing

Every journey needs a strong foundation, and at The British School Warsaw, your child’s health and wellbeing are always our top priority. We have created a nurturing environment where children feel safe, happy, and supported in all areas of their development. Aligned with the Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS), we focus on fostering Personal, Social, and Emotional Development (PSED), helping children build resilience, social skills, and confidence. This ensures that they flourish both inside and outside the classroom, equipping them to navigate the challenges and joys that lie ahead

2. Inspiring Learning Through Purposeful Play

Learning should be joyful and engaging, and we achieve this through purposeful play. At The British School Warsaw, our play-based approach is designed to inspire curiosity and foster essential skills such as critical thinking and problem-solving. Play supports key areas of learning, including physical development, language, and social interaction. Whether your child is building a tower of blocks or exploring our outdoor learning spaces, every moment is an opportunity for discovery. Our thoughtfully planned activities encourage children to explore, create, and engage, making their educational journey an exciting and enjoyable experience, while supporting their whole development.

3. Internationally Qualified Teachers

Our team of educators is not only passionate but also highly qualified. With teachers from diverse international backgrounds, your child will be exposed to a wealth of knowledge and perspectives. Our educators are experts in early childhood development and create a nurturing, stimulating environment that encourages children to explore, question, and grow. Their expertise ensures that your child receives a world-class education during these critical early years.

4. Nurturing Bright Futures

At The British School Warsaw, we encourage children to reach for the stars—not just academically, but as well-rounded individuals. We prepare them with the skills they need to succeed at each stage of their journey, building on a strong foundation in the Early Years. These formative years are key, as they shape not only academic skills but also emotional resilience and independence.

Our aim is to nurture the whole child, helping them grow into independent, curious learners who are well-prepared to transition into primary school. Through personalised attention, a balanced curriculum, and carefully structured activities, we ensure that each child develops the essential skills needed for future success.

One of the ways we set ourselves apart is through our early phonics programme. Phonics is introduced at the Nursery level, and by the time children enter Reception, they are well on their way to mastering early literacy through our Read Write Inc. programme. This early focus on reading provides children with a strong foundation, ensuring they are ready to take on the next steps of their academic journey with confidence.

5. Situated in the Heart of Warsaw

Our location in the heart of Warsaw offers convenience and accessibility for families. We are proud to be part of this vibrant, international city, and our central location allows parents easy access to drop off and pick up their children. Our location is convenient for tram and metro lines too. But more than that, we offer a community where children and families from all backgrounds come together, creating a warm and inclusive environment for every child’s educational journey

What Sets Us Above the Rest?

In addition to these key strengths, there are several unique features of our Early Years campus that make the journey with us truly exceptional:

  • Outdoor Learning Adventures Our campus offers exceptional outdoor learning opportunities, where children can explore nature, engage in physical play, and connect with their environment. From organised outdoor activities to free play, our children benefit from fresh air and the chance to develop gross motor skills in a stimulating setting. These experiences not only support physical development but also foster a love of nature and exploration.
  • Thematic Learning That Sparks Imagination We adopt a topic-based approach that captivates young minds. Whether it’s blasting off to outer space in Reception, exploring the mysteries of the sea in Nursery, or diving into the enchanting world of magic in Pre-Nursery, our children are immersed 
    in rich, imaginative worlds that fuel their curiosity, creativity and enthusiasm for learning.
  • Learning Beyond the Classroom The educational journey at The British School Warsaw extends far beyond the classroom. We enrich children’s learning with trips to theatres, farms, museums, and more, providing hands-on experiences that deepen their understanding of the world. These outings bring the topics they explore in school into real  life, creating lasting memories and enhancing their learning journey.
  • Engaging Parents in the Journey We believe in the importance of a strong partnership between home and school. At The British School Warsaw, we offer a range of opportunities for parents to get involved, from our Parents Academy, where you can learn about our teaching methods, to craft mornings and stay-and-read sessions. Together, we create a supportive community that ensures every child thrives.
