Kindergarten

Kindergarten (ages 3-6) is a warm, informal and inviting environment providing physical and emotional security through the rhythms and routines of the day and through self-directed play.

Lower School

Our Lower School begins with Class 1 for children aged 6/7. Children learn, grow and flourish under the loving and secure care and direction of the Class Teacher until they reach Class 8 at the age of 13/14.

‘The need for imagination, a sense of truth and a feeling of responsibility – these are the three forces which are the very nerve of education’

Practical Learning

The curriculum offers many opportunities to engage with topics in a practical manner. The possibilities are endless. At our school children engage with the topics they learn a practical manner! As well as the practical work related to Main Lesson topics, pupils will engage with practical topics in their subject lessons such as gardening, woodwork, modelling and handwork.

The wonderful outdoor environment at Langley Hill Independent School is used to its full potential and provides pupils with numerous opportunities to engage with the natural world through play and study.

Holistic Learning

Rhythm and routines support the development of the whole child – physically, spiritually, emotionally, and intellectually. It is well established that bodily movement affects brain chemistry.

Movement activities and music are part and parcel of each day and teachers may draw on mindfulness and yoga as well as brain gym and traditional children games.

The culture of the School is shaped to cultivate amongst the children a spirit of gratitude and a culture of respect for themselves, for each other and for their environment.

Inspired Learning

Children are inquisitive, resourceful and resilient and have a deep curiosity to understand the world they see and find their place in it. The school culture is steeped in good storytelling through the years to create a moral framework for the children, and the environment is nurturing, challenging and positive. The curriculum is committed to the delivery of wholesome educational excellence whilst integrating the best of outdoor play, movement, sports, music and the arts so that pupils can flourish into responsible citizens who have a rich inner life and are contributing to their community.
