Academic Stages

The crèche “Busy Bees” is an integral part of the Royals of Nedjel School, providing exceptional care for the under 2’s. Innovative and engaging activities, both inside and outside, encourage the children to explore, investigate and use their imagination.
We recognize that it is our responsibility to care for your child so they feel safe, happy and secure. Our qualified team work closely with you to ensure that your child settles in well and feels comfortable and confident.
Our Pre-school curriculum encompasses the areas stipulated in United Kingdom’s Early Years Foundation Years (EYFS) which will nurture your child’s interest and help them to be well-prepared for Primary.
The areas of learning are:
Communication and Language Physical Development Personal, Social and Emotional Development Literacy Mathematics Understanding the World Expressive Arts and Design Your child will also start to recognize and write their own name and develop their communication skills, literacy and numeracy skills through a combination of adult-led and child-led activities.


Key Stage 1 – Years 1 and 2 (Ages 5 – 7) Exploration and Learning the Basics A more structured approach to the day helps children continue their development with learning how to read, write and count in English. We still encourage children to explore and play, and discover the world around them and relate their findings in words and numbers.
Key Stage 2 – Years 3 to 6 (Ages 7 – 11)
Communication and Application of Skill
Children are naturally curious, and in The Rock Age School, we encourage them to learn about things that interest them while consolidating their numeracy and literacy skills. At this stage, we teach children how to apply these basic skills to other subject areas – such as Science, Art and History.
