Early Years
The Foundation of the Early Years
Bright Beginnings from the Start
At Bright, we provide learners with a nurturing space where learning becomes an exciting adventure and every child’s potential shines. Our Early Years programme encourages children to become curious, active learners who explore, discover, and engage with the world around them through meaningful play and hands-on experiences.


Education for Young Learners
Early Years at Bright
At Bright, our Early Years Pathway is a journey of discovery for children aged 3 to 5. Guided by the Cambridge Curriculum, we nurture curious minds, spark creativity, and empower children to explore and learn through play.
We foster strong relationships and communication skills, laying the foundation for a lifelong love of learning.
Why is it better?
The Cambridge Approach
The Cambridge Early Years Curriculum was developed by a diverse team of early years and subject-matter experts. This globally recognized framework reflects best practices from around the world, ensuring the highest quality early years education for your child.


“Children learn best through playful, joyful experiences in a colourful and well-organised environment that inspires them to grow and thrive.”
As an EYS Coordinator, I wholeheartedly believe that children thrive when learning is playful, joyful, and engaging. My work is deeply inspired by the Reggio Emilia philosophy, which emphasises hands-on activities and child-centred exploration. I see every child as naturally capable and curious, and I strive to nurture their unique potential by designing experiences that encourage creativity, problem-solving, and self-expression.
Beyond academic growth, I am deeply committed to fostering a warm and emotionally balanced environment. I believe that kindness, friendship, and helping others are fundamental values that shape not just the classroom but the foundation of a child’s life.
– Patrícia Cardoso, Coordinator of the Early Years Pathway
Education for everyone
The Early Years Curriculum
Our Early Years curriculum is structured around six key areas that guide and support children’s overall development into the Primary Pathway.
These areas are interconnected, ensuring that teaching and learning occur in a holistic way, as outlined in the Cambridge Holistic Learning Model. This approach takes into account all aspects of a child’s growth — cognitive, social, emotional, and physical — promoting a balanced and well-rounded educational experience.
Each of these six areas plays a vital role in shaping the child’s development, and together they offer a comprehensive foundation for learning. By addressing all areas simultaneously, we provide children with opportunities to build essential skills, grow in confidence, and prepare for the next stage of their education, whether in Cambridge Primary or another programme.
This interconnected approach fosters an engaging and meaningful learning environment for every child.
