Our passionate and experienced staff work closely with parents to ensure that every child has the opportunities, activities, and resources to develop into happy, confident and independent individuals. Overview Our children benefit from expert care and teaching whilst at nursery, and families benefit from experts on tap to inform and advise on key learning, wellbeing and developmental stages. Whilst children’s learning is fun, play based and creative, our curriculum ensures we are giving them a head start, gradually readying them to thrive in their next step up to Reception. They believe they are having simply fun, we know it’s purposeful play developing firm foundations for life-long learning. Being part of Copthorne Prep ensures a seamless journey through school. Pupils already feel at home as part of our school family as they move up to Reception and continue their journey on a future-focused curriculum which runs through to age 11. We also benefit from being part of the award-winning Caterham School family with early offers and scholarship opportunities in Year 5 to join the senior school. Meet the team Faye Rumble Deputy Nursery Manager Faye Rumble Deputy Nursery Manager I love being a part of Flying Start Nursery as I enjoy every day being different. I love seeing the progress the children make from their starting point until they go into Reception class where they thrive as they already feel secure and a sense of belonging at Copthorne Prep.
