Bromley Bee stands out among other daycare centres and preschools in the following ways:
It has UK-trained early childhood educators with a real passion for working with kids.
It ensures the development of an individual curriculum for each of its children based on their needs, learning styles, potentials and level of intelligence.
Our curriculum focuses on the experiential learning process instead of rote memorisation, emphasising children’s propensity to explore and discover.
From a very early age, children are exposed to an environment that recognises their creativity and unique approach to solving problems.
It prioritises safe environments, security, intellectual nourishment, rapport building, trust, praise and encouragement, a feeling of mutual respect and stimulation of curiosity over everything else.


Aims
To provide exceptional childcare and education for children aged 6months to 8 years.
To provide a safe, happy and caring environment where individuality and learning through play is promoted.
To work in partnership and form positive relationships with all parents/carers and outside agencies and professionals.
To enable children to develop positive relationships with our staff built on trust and confidence.


Our staff
Qualified and trained staff help us deliver our service and meet regulatory requirements. We work within the UK recommended adult-child ratios and have permanent staff with which your child can build relationships. We have a robust recruitment system in place to ensure we have the right people to look after your child. Most of our staff hold recognised childcare qualifications, whilst the rest are in the process of gaining childcare qualifications (apprentices). Our staff members have up-to-date certificates in first aid, safeguarding, health and safety and food hygiene awareness. All staff members also undergo an enhanced police check to ensure they are suitable to work with children.


Our Setting
A secure main front gate controls access to our setting and also additional secure preschool/daycare entrance with pin code access. Every part of the premises is monitored by CC camera 24hrs, 7 days a week.
Literacy
Mathematics
Understanding the World
Expressive Art and Design
For toddlers, we focus mainly on the prime areas of learning (progress check age 2) as these form the basis of successful education in the four specific areas. The three prime areas support toddlers in developing secure attachments and a sense of belonging, identifying their feelings, becoming independent, curious and ready to explore.
For our preschool children, the balance will shift towards an equal focus on all areas of learning as they grow in confidence and ability within the three prime
areas. We aim for our preschool children to become confident in all specific areas of earning before the start of school, as this will help them significantly when moving on to Reception class and Key Stage 1 (School Years1 and 2).


Assessment
We assess how well our children learn and develop by recording daily observations. These observations are built up over time and used in children’s formal assessments. Every 8 or 12 weeks (depending on age/individual needs), we assess your child’s learning and development in all relevant areas and record this on their unique tracker; this helps us to pick up on their strengths and any areas of weakness for us to focus on in our future activity planning. The EYFS requires that we provide parents with a short written summary of their child’s development in the three prime areas of learning and development at aged 2 (between 24 and 36 months). The three prime areas of learning are; personal social and emotional development, physical development, and communication and language.
