RECEPTION CLASS
The young and curious minds of the students put smiles on our faces every day, as they learn to quench their thirst for knowledge in both structured and playful ways. These are really important development years where setting the right behaviours and aptitude for learning will lay strong foundations for your child. The Webber Independent team is committed to nurturing the growth of the young students through a number of different learning methods, in a warm, safe and inclusive environment.

YEARS 1 & 2
As your son or daughter progresses to Years 1 and 2 they introduce the Stage not Age Programme, where the young minds benefit from personalised learning according to their ability. This programme ensures that everyone has the appropriate level of challenge, and is able to achieve their best in our small and friendly class sizes.In Pre-Prep we teach Key Stage 1 of the National Curriculum for England, enhanced by specialist teaching, in Modern Foreign Languages, Physical Education, Geography, Music and more. The action-led learning combines Phonics and Maths Games with more academic Literacy and Numeracy practices. Additionally, a strong focus on building Cognitive Skills with hands-on 'play' is an important part of learning at The Webber Independent.

YEARS 3 TO 6
The Webber Independent Prep School offers small class sizes and personalised learning to ensure that everyone has the necessary time and attention to flourish. We continue your child's education with Key Stage 2 of the National Curriculum, and the Stage not Age Programme - where they ensure your son or daughter is at the appropriate level of challenge, and is able to achieve their best.As your son or daughter progresses through the Prep School, they focus on nurturing their academic excellence and preparing them for a smooth transition into Senior School.

SENIOR SCHOOL
Senior School is a time where young minds begin to experience extra responsibilities and flex their academic muscle in new ways. At The Webber Independent they develop key skills to prepare your son or daughter for the rigours of examinations. One of the ways they do this is through embedding the skills and competencies required for the successful study of GCSE into our Key Stage 3 Programme of Study.   A key benefit of The Webber Senior School is the small class sizes, where they provide highly individualised learning and a greater parent, student and teacher partnership. In addition, we deliver a robust Study Skills Programme. The track record of strong GCSE results demonstrates that the approach to education delivers. So, from Year 7 to Year 11, you can be assured that your son or daughter's education is in good hands.
