Why Early Years Education at Webber Independent Gives Your Child a Head Start

Posted: 16th April 2025

At The Webber Independent School, we believe the earliest years of a child’s education lay the foundation for a lifetime of confidence, curiosity and success. Our Little Webber Nursery provision — from Little Explorers through to Pre-Reception — is a place where children thrive through care, creativity and connection. And with outstanding feedback from parents, it’s clear: Webber is where bright futures begin.

A Nurturing Start to School Life

Starting Nursery is a big step, and at Little Webber, every detail is designed to help children feel safe, valued and happy from day one. Our caring staff build strong relationships with each child, ensuring they are supported emotionally and socially while developing essential early learning skills. It’s no surprise that 100% of parents in our recent 2025 Parent Survey agreed that their child enjoys coming to Nursery, with comments such as: “Walks in smiling and doesn’t look back.” Our nurturing environment provides the structure and freedom that little learners need to grow – at their own pace, in their own way.

Personalised Care That Makes a Difference

Our Early Years team knows that no two children are the same. That’s why we take a truly personalised approach to learning and care. From adapting activities to individual interests to ensuring children feel seen and supported, we put the needs of your child first. “Well organised – information flow is on a high level. Really caring environment, personalised approach – children are treated as individuals with their different needs.” Parents value our commitment to excellence, with 91% saying their child enjoys learning and 82% recognising that teaching enables their child to make clear progress.

Strong Foundations for the Future

Our curriculum goes beyond ABCs and 123s. We focus on developing communication, problem-solving, resilience, and creativity — the essential building blocks for lifelong success. Through play-based learning, hands-on discovery, and carefully guided activities, we help children build a love for learning that lasts. “We are satisfied with our son’s progress and he feels very happy to go to the nursery every day.” At Little Webber, children don’t just “go to Nursery” — they begin a journey of discovery, joy, and readiness for the next stage of school life.

A Home from Home

A strong sense of belonging is at the heart of what makes Webber so special. With a home-from-home atmosphere and a team that genuinely cares, parents can feel confident their child is in safe, capable, and compassionate hands. “Just a big thank you to the team for all the support, dedication and care staff has shown towards our child – it has made an incredible difference!” “The best decision we made was to move our child to the Webber!” From nutritious home-cooked meals to engaging daily routines, we take care of the little things so your child can focus on what they do best: play, learn, and grow.

Communication and Partnership You Can Count On

We work hand in hand with families to ensure every child feels supported both in and out of the classroom. Parents receive daily updates, termly reports, and open lines of communication with staff — because we know great outcomes are built on strong partnerships. 91% of parents said they feel they can communicate easily with Little Webber and receive timely responses. And when parents have feedback or concerns? We listen — and act.
