Nordic School's Approach

At the Nordic School we believe that childhood has intrinsic value and have a holistic and acknowledging approach to the children in order to meet every child’s need for security, care, belongingness, and respect.

Play is a key focus at the Nordic school and we strive to have a safe learning environment where the values of equality, equity, mutual respect and diversity are paramount.
