Discovering the Joy of Learning

Both full and part time nursery units cater for children aged three to five, as we like to have the children mixing with others a little older and a little younger.

Here at the Edinburgh Academy, we provide a warm, caring environment where boys and girls can grow and develop in a secure, stable and friendly environment. We aim to help each child to discover the true joy of learning and guide each individual gently along the path that prepares them for life.

Working through play

The carefully structured nursery environment leads to much stimulation and the skills of the trained staff are such that the children are learning without even realising it! Often what is seen to happen in a nursery is described as “just play” but to our young children this is their work.

Here at The Edinburgh Academy, we provide experiences, situations and adventures that help to develop an enthusiastic and inquiring young person. This is the beginning of The Academy's celebrated "personally tailored teaching." The natural ability of the young child must be nurtured, encouraged and satisfied to enable strong foundations to be laid for all future learning in life.
