information
Here at Avanti, we pride ourselves in a child-centred approach. Avanti Schools support each person’s life journey along three parallel paths: Educational excellence; Character formation; and Spiritual insight. Avanti’s virtues of empathy, gratitude, courage, integrity, self-discipline and respect are tangible throughout school life and are incorporated throughout the whole curriculum.
Avanti’s unique ethos places a key emphasis on each individual’s wellbeing and good mental health. All our schools and pre-schools share a dedicated approach to wellbeing, from providing yoga and mindfulness sessions, sports and exercise, charity work, and working with parents and carers as co-educators.
We are currently accepting children that are aged three to join our amazing pre-school and become part of the Avanti family. It is called a ‘Pre-school’ because it is within Avanti Meadows Primary School and will give your child an amazing start to school through high-quality planning and resourcing. The pre-school will work closely with the Reception team to ensure consistency across the early years phase and will base all planning on what the children’s interests are. We have a brilliant Pre-school team that is staffed with a fully qualified teacher, a higher-level teaching assistant as well as a teaching assistant.
We accept both 30 hours and 15 hours funding. The lunch hour comes at a cost of £5 per session and includes lunch as well as adult supervision.
We can provide wraparound care for your child, with a Late Play session running until either 4.30pm or 5.30pm. If you are interested in afterschool care, you can also register for this via the pre-school email address.
If you would like to register for a place at Avanti Meadows Pre-school, please complete the application by clicking here. Once you have submitted your application, we will be in touch to confirm details and send you more information about your child’s start with us.
We look forward to hearing from you and welcoming your family to ours!
