Seven Oaks welcomes children aged 2 to 6 years. Our Early Years journey is organised into four stages, thoughtfully designed to support each phase of a child’s development:

Acorns — Playgroup (2–3 years)
Willows — Foundation 1 (3–4 years)
Maples — Foundation 2 (4–5 years)
Oaks — Reception (5–6 years)

Each stage builds naturally on the one before it, helping children grow in confidence, independence and readiness for their next step.

Seven Oaks offers a high-quality international early-years curriculum where children learn through purposeful play, exploration, creativity and discovery.

Our approach supports the development of the whole child — intellectually, socially, emotionally, physically and spiritually — rather than focusing on academics in isolation.

We believe young children learn best when they are actively engaged in their learning.

Rather than relying heavily on formal, desk-based instruction, children are encouraged to explore, ask questions, experiment, imagine, create and solve problems.
Our teachers intentionally guide these experiences, turning purposeful play into meaningful opportunities for learning and development.

Through purposeful play, high-quality international early years education, strong partnerships with families and our Seven Pillars, we nurture confident, responsible, reflective, innovative and engaged lifelong learners.

Our Seven Pillars are Integrity, Innovation, Excellence, Compassion, Resilience, Ambition and Community.
These pillars shape how we teach, how we treat one another and how we encourage our children to grow.

Our Mission: To provide a safe, inclusive and inspiring learning environment where every child is known, valued and supported to flourish — intellectually, socially, emotionally, physically and spiritually.

Our Vision: To nurture confident, compassionate and purpose-driven learners who are grounded in strong values, equipped to thrive and inspired to shape a better world.

Parents receive further information about class routines and daily schedules during enrolment.

Yes. Seven Oaks provides a school meal programme thoughtfully designed with young children in mind.

We aim to offer varied, balanced and child-friendly meals while giving children opportunities to experience different foods and flavours.

Parents should disclose any food allergies, intolerances or dietary requirements during enrolment so that these can be discussed with the school and appropriately managed.

The safety, wellbeing and safeguarding of every child entrusted to us are priorities at Seven Oaks.

We have safeguarding, first-aid and emergency-response procedures in place, with designated members of staff responsible for coordinating incidents, administering first aid within their level of training and communicating with families.

Parents are required to provide accurate medical information and up-to-date emergency contacts during enrolment. If a child requires medical attention beyond the first aid that can be provided at school, Seven Oaks follows its established emergency and medical-referral procedures and contacts the child's parent or guardian.

Fees vary according to the child's class and the services selected.

Our Admissions Team provides families with the current Fee Schedule, which gives a clear breakdown of tuition fees and applicable charges for items such as enrolment, meals, learning materials, uniform and insurance.

For the latest Fee Schedule or to discuss your child's enrolment, please contact our Admissions Team.
