Jack & Jill Preschool welcome all families. We are a Christian group organised as part of ChristChurch Banstead’s work in the local community. We participate in a weekly children’s worship service at Allsorts, read Bible stories and pray daily. We encourage an atmosphere of mutual respect and care for all people.

We realise that you, as parents/carers are your child’s primary educators. We work in partnership with you and encourage good relationships to be formed. Our dedicated staff team are always on hand to offer you support.

We follow the Early Years Foundation Stage Curriculum (EYFS).

Jack and Jill is great fun. Children learn through a variety of exciting and engaging activities. Many are based on your child’s interests, other activities are informed from observations on your child. 

Our experienced teachers spend quality time playing and chatting with your child, striving to develop your child’s thinking skills, promoting language and communication skills. This all takes place within an environment which promotes curiosity, kindness to everyone, respect for others, that builds responsibility and independence, ensuring your child is ready for the next step to school. 

We allocate your child a key person who will plan individual next steps for your child through undertaking  observations and assessments to record progress. We ensure your child progresses in their development. Your child’s key person is on hand to regularly discuss how your child is progressing. 

Jack and Jill offer a safe and happy environment for your child to learn and develop. All of our early years practitioners, teachers and volunteers are checked with the Disclosure and Barring service. We fully ensure that all safeguarding and welfare requirements are met according to the EYFS. 

We would love to hear from you and to show you around.
