From the Inquisitive Minds Pre-School
Our goal is to offer the best possible daycare. based closely on the Montessori Method and Philosophy and the Early Years Foundation Stage Framework (2021). At Inquisitive Minds Preschool, we are dedicated to collaborating with each child's parents and caregivers to provide the resources they need to acquire life skills and to organise all other curriculum components. Additionally, we'll make sure that staff members foster each child's unique requirements and that the kids are looked after in a secure setting. The Mechanics Institute Trust presently manages the preschool, which is located in the Central Community Centre in Emlyn Square, Swindon. For several decades, the location housed a nursery. Since then, the property has been updated with a dedicated outdoor play space for the preschool. Robert Le Kyng is the principal feeder institution. Children between the ages of 2 and 4 will be cared for by us.
