At Reach British School, our Early Years programme focuses on key areas of learning to provide a well-rounded foundation:
Express themselves
Building on their physical development allows children to explore their environment and be inquisitive about the world around them. Our custom play spaces allow the children to have fun, whilst learning important skills at the same time.
By learning how to safely use equipment, they build the confidence to express themselves and build their coordination skills.
Gain confidence
At Reach, children gain confidence by trying new activities and expressing their preferences. They feel at ease speaking in familiar groups, sharing their ideas, and selecting the materials they need for their chosen activities.
Children discuss emotions, their own and others', as well as behaviors and their consequences, recognising that certain behaviours are considered unacceptable. By learning these skills, the children demonstrate sensitivity towards the needs and feelings of others and foster positive relationships with both adults and their peers.
Love of reading and writing
At Reach, we believe that literacy should be engaging so that children can begin their lifelong journey of reading and writing. Whilst in the Early Years school, children will start reading and comprehending simple sentences. They will utilise new skills to decode words accurately and pronounce them fluently.
By taking part in descriptive discussions about what they have read, the children will demonstrate their grasp of the text and storyline. When it comes to writing, they build on their phonic knowledge to accurately reflect the spoken word and write simple sentences. The world of learning starts here.
Problem solving
When it comes to mathematics, children develop strong counting skills from 1 to 20 and learn to sequence numbers accordingly. They can identify the number that comes before or after a given number. Utilising physical, real-world objects, they can add and subtract two single-digit numbers and count forward or backward to determine the answer.
As problem-solvers, they tackle more complex mathematical operations such as doubling, halving, and sharing. Children also use everyday language to compare quantities and objects based on size, weight, capacity, position, distance, time, and money, thus honing their abilities to solve problems.
Discover communities
Children love to share stories about past memories and present adventures, not just from their own lives but also from their families. They enjoy exploring the similarities and differences between themselves and others, as well as between different families, communities, and traditions. They are curious about the variation in places, objects, materials, and living things.
We encourage the children to discover what makes their immediate surroundings unique and how different environments can be from one another. The class has fun observing animals and plants, pondering why things happen the way they do, and discussing changes they notice.
Explore the arts
Children embrace the joy of singing songs, creating music, and expressing themselves through dance. They safely use and explore a variety of materials in art and design sessions using tools and techniques, experimenting with colour, design, texture, form and function. They represent their own ideas, thoughts and feelings through design and technology, art, music, dance, role-play and stories.
At Reach, we encourage and celebrate the artistic exploration of our diverse and talented learners, fostering a truly inclusive and globally-minded artistic community.
At Reach British School, every day is a celebration of learning. Our programme is designed to pursue life skills and to help our students reach their full potential and this starts with Early Years. As part of the International Schools Partnership - ISP family, we support students to take ownership of their learning, and every student is motivated to shape their world through transformative learning experiences.

Our schools are clear about the knowledge and skills students need to succeed academically.
Beyond that, our schools are equipped with innovative curricula, a research-backed learning approach and high-impact assessment tools, all designed to deepen each student’s understanding. Continuous improvement is fundamental to ISP.
All our schools follow a learning improvement framework which monitors performance against selected criteria proven to best support student learning.
It helps us enhance our approach to have the greatest impact on students’ success.
We believe that there are some key life skills that all students need to thrive. These include everything from digital literacy to global awareness.
These skills prepare them to adapt to a rapidly changing world, make informed decisions, and build meaningful relationships, setting a strong foundation for lifelong success and fulfilment.
ISP students develop these skills over the course of their school years, through learning experiences inside and outside the classroom.
Every year, ISP students around the world take part in multicultural and multilingual experiences called International Learning Opportunities for Students (ILOS). Whether it’s becoming a United Nations delegate or directing a film, ILOSprogrammes open the world to every student.
Every ILOS experience encourages students to discover their true interests as they prepare to succeed in today’s global society.
International learning is part of our schools’ DNA. Our students are encouraged to explore a range of world languages.
We ensure all our students can communicate and collaborate confidently in at least one world language (usually English, Mandarin, Arabic, Spanish or French), in addition to their home languages.
In our school, placement of our new students in classes is carried out by the Heads of School to ensure classes are diverse across gender, language, national status, and additional learning needs. After enroling, your child's new teacher will be in touch directly with all the information you will need, and you will be given a house colour for your sports uniform.
We look forward to welcoming you on your first day!
Reach British School's Early Years programme takes children aged three to five, covering Nursery and Foundation Stages 1 and 2. It's a multilingual setting where young learners build life skills mostly through play. The focus is on independence and curiosity, with progress tracked individually so each child's first steps into education match their own developmental pace before they move on to primary school at age five.
Reach British School follows the British Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS) curriculum, which covers physical development, personal and emotional development, literacy, maths, understanding the world, and arts and design. The school's version of EYFS leans heavily on play, independence and curiosity to build a solid foundation, delivered in a personalised setting meant to get children asking questions and feeling confident before they start primary school.
At Reach British School, each child's development is supported through activities matched to their pace across six areas: Physical development
Children build confidence by trying new things and learning to handle their emotions. Custom play spaces, phonics, hands-on maths and creative arts sessions work together to build curiosity and independence.
Custom play spaces at Reach British School let children explore and learn to use equipment safely, with class sizes kept small enough that teachers can give individual attention. The school's safeguarding policies, pastoral support and personalised progress tracking all feed into a setting that's meant to feel both stimulating and secure, where children can build confidence and curiosity at their own pace.
When new students join Reach British School, the heads of school place them into classes balanced for gender, language, national background and additional learning needs. Before the first day, the new teacher gets in touch with families directly to share the details they'll need, right down to the child's house colour for the sports kit. That groundwork, plus the Early Years setting itself, helps children settle into their first days at Reach with less fuss.
At Reach, we know how important your child's early years are. Contact us to find out how we can enrich their development with our Early Years programme.
