Early Years

Sunday Times Schools Guide 2025 - Independent Secondary School of the Year North West

Our Early Years Provision

The first few years in a young child’s life are a truly remarkable time and can make an enormous difference to a child’s growth and development. Our Early Years provision includes our Nursery and Pre Prep, with Nursery taking our youngest children from two years, before they move up to Pre Prep aged three. Early Years is where many of our children start their Birkenhead School journey and build foundations for a lifelong adventure of learning.

Wellbeing and lifelong learning

We work hard to provide enabling environments that stimulate, excite and intrigue the children so that they are curious to see and do more. All these experiences help to shape their individual development and build the foundations for future success, wellbeing and lifelong learning.

From Nursery to Pre-Prep, the children learn through play. Children can become deeply involved in play, taking things they already know and combining them in new ways to increase their understanding of the world and build on existing learning.

Our Early Years Setting

Situated within the beautiful grounds of Birkenhead School, we have easy access to the wider school facilities. Regular walks and activities within the School grounds add to the wider experiences for our littlest learners and help when they come to move through the School.

We warmly invite you to visit our Early Years settings and see what makes us a special place for your child’s formative years with visits welcome throughout the year. We look forward to meeting you and your family.
