Description
Bablake Junior and Pre-prep School is Independent Primary school in Coventry for kids aged 3 to 11 (Gender - Mixed )
Set in six acres of beautiful grounds just a short drive from the Junior and Senior School site, the Pre Prep is a perfect place for your child to start their Bablake journey. Inspirational and dedicated teachers, within our idyllic environment, allow us to fully celebrate the learning process. Bablake children take ownership of their learning journey, they are highly motivated and inquisitive, with a love of learning that starts at a young age.As the Head of Bablake Pre Prep, under the leadership of the Headmaster, Lorrian Holder, I feel an enormous sense of responsibility as you entrust your youngest children into our care. Our nurturing environment, where pastoral care is a priority, enables and encourages children to be the best version of themselves. Children thrive both personally and academically as we provide a range of experiences that engage and challenge them every day. Encouraging each child to develop a sense of wonder and a life-long love of learning is of the utmost importance.

EARLY YEARS
Early Years at Bablake encompasses both Kindergarten and Reception children within their own purpose built open plan settings. Surrounded by idyllic green open spaces, our highly skilled staff are dedicated to creating a nurturing environment where your child can be happy, grow in confidence, build relationships and commence their learning journey. The relationships we build with children lie at the heart of our successes, allowing us to plan learning opportunities that centre around your child’s passions and interests. This, alongside the Early Years Foundation Stage Framework creates a robust curriculum for our children to make great strides in their progress and achievement.
KEY STAGE 1
At Bablake Pre Prep, the academic curriculum is broad, balanced and engaging. The children are appropriately challenged and supported as necessary and the teaching approach is a combination of whole class teaching, group work and individual support and challenge. English and Mathematics primarily take place in the morning, with other subjects such as Science, Computing, Geography, History and RE taking place in the afternoons.

Things to note
CREATIVE
Learning through play, learning through the environment and learning through meaningful and engaging experiences are key elements at Bablake that build the foundations for a love of learning. In Early Years, your child will be encouraged to become a creative and critical thinker; planning their own learning, choosing appropriate resources and adapting their plans in order to achieve the desired outcome.
OUTDOOR LEARNING
Both Kindergarten and Reception children have continuous access to a covered outdoor learning space, in addition to access to our beautiful grounds. They endeavour for your child to consider the outdoors as a place to spend quality time being present in the moment and noticing all around them. The outdoor environment here at Bablake, is a place to thrive in moments of exploration and curiosity.
PHYSICAL EDUCATION
Developing a love for sport and other physical activities is a key part of our approach at Bablake. Children are encouraged to practise a variety of skills alongside team work and co-operation. We offer skills lessons, fitness sessions and team games, taught by sports staff and class teachers.
FOREST SCHOOL
Forest School sessions are a favourite here at the Pre Prep. We are fortunate to have extensive grounds in which the children are able to practise skills such as woodland craft, den building, supervised use of tools and cooking over a fire. Sessions provide for both planned and child-initiated activities under the supervision of a qualified Forest School Leader.
