Foundation Stage
Our children start on their learning journey in the Early Years department of Sage College. A dedicated team of Early Years practioners led by the Head of
Early Years guide our new adventurers through a specific programme of activities designed to equip them for the demands of the Primary curriculum.

Children are encouraged to
- Be willing to have a go
