Welcome to Little Learners!
Springbank Little Learners is a high quality nursery and pre-school which is part of Springbank Primary Academy. We are situated in the heart of the Springbank community and welcome children from 2 - 4 years old.
We are proud to be part of the school community and support children to develop the skills needed to successfully transition to school. We work closely with the reception class teachers to tailor a curriculum that prepares children for their next steps.
The benefits of a nursery and pre-school experience within an established school are enormous.
We have strong links to Springbank Primary Academy, which ensures a smooth transition into school.
Our fantastic Little Learners team consists of a Headteacher, EYFS lead and nursery manager, deputy manager and a range of skilled practitioners. Our dedicated practitioners are experienced in early years education and child development. We provide nurturing care alongside high-quality teaching, ensuring every child is supported to reach their full potential.
We have purpose-built toddler and pre-school rooms with attached outdoor areas including a canopied learning environment in pre-school, meaning learning can be outside whatever the weather.
Our curriculum is play based and creative and centres around encouraging children to explore, discover, use their imaginations and communicate with their friends and staff. We carefully prepare children for the move to Reception by developing early phonics, number skills, independence, listening skills, and confidence in group situations — all in a fun and age-appropriate way.
As we are a school-based setting we are fortunate to have the expertise of a SENDCO. Their dual role strengthens continuity and ensures smooth, well supported‑ transitions into Reception and beyond. Our SENDCO works closely with families, staff, and external professionals to create personalised support plans that meet each child’s unique needs. Our team is always approachable. We value strong partnerships with parents, recognising that you are your child’s first and most important educator, and we work together to support each child’s development and success.
By being part of The GLA Trust, we are part of a close-knit collaborative team of 11 schools with 4 onsite nurseries and pre-schools. The GLA Trust has developed a positive reputation for quality-first teaching and learning, sharing their immense expertise, talent and experience across the individual academies, pre-schools and nurseries.
