GEMS FirstPoint School extends its outstanding-rated early years provision with launch of nursery

- Provision will combine Reggio Emilia philosophy and British EYFS curriculum

- Families can choose from a variety of flexible options to suit their requirements

DUBAI, United Arab Emirates: Toddlers as young as two years old will be welcomed by the Early Years team at GEMS FirstPoint School (FPS) come September, when the Dubai-based British curriculum through-school opens its brand-new nursery provision in time for the start of the 2023-24 academic year.

Led by a combination of the Reggio Emilia philosophy and the British Early Years Foundation Stage curriculum, the purpose-built FPS Nursery with a capacity for 36 children will provide a safe and nurturing environment for children to take risks, problem solve, think critically and have fun.

David Wade, Principal/CEO at GEMS FirstPoint School, said: “We are absolutely delighted to be able to extend the provision of our outstanding school to include younger learners aged 2-3 years. We pride ourselves on being a community school and feedback tells us that there is strong demand for a high-quality nursery provision with flexible times to suit families – one that provides the very best preparation for entering our superb Foundation Stage and main school. It will be my pleasure to welcome parents and young learners
