Early Years
Message from the Head of Early Years
A very warm welcome to the Early Years at Berlin British School
It is a true pleasure to introduce you to our nurturing and vibrant Early Years community, where each child’s journey begins with joy, curiosity, and discovery. These early stages of learning are some of the most important in a child’s life, and we are honored to be part of this exciting adventure with you and your family.
The curriculum at Early Years is bilingual and is a blend of the Berliner Bildungsprogramm and the International Baccalaureate Primary Years Programme with an inquiry-based approach. Our curriculum is delivered by both Early Years trained teachers and Erzieher (educators). The teachers teach the subjects in English, while our Erzieher deliver the curriculum subjects in German, providing the children with a fully immersive bilingual experience.
At the Berlin British School, we believe that every child is unique and full of potential. Our caring and experienced team is dedicated to creating a safe, stimulating and inspiring environment where children feel valued, confident and eager to explore the world around them. Through play-based learning and thoughtful guidance, we foster creativity, independence and a lifelong love of learning. Our children are grouped by age to help foster age appropriate learning.
We value the partnership between home and school. Together, we can support each child to flourish emotionally, socially, and academically. We encourage open communication and welcome your involvement in all aspects of your child’s learning journey.
Early Years is open for 50 weeks each year, providing both morning care from 7:30 and after-school activities until 5:00pm. Additionally, we offer extracurricular activities and holiday camps.
