The Learning Experience (TLE)
Curriculum

At TLE we ensure that the child is at the centre of everything we do so that children are enabled to reach their full potential and be prepared for the world in which they are growing up and living in.

Our discovery-based L.E.A.P (Learning Experience Academic Programme) curriculum is mapped to ensure it meets the Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS) requirements and is developed with the whole child in mind, building on the foundations of early years research on how children learn, through natural curiosity and active learning. Or as we say, to Learn, Play and Grow.

Success measured in happy stories

See what parents are saying about our nurseries!

“We’ve had a very positive experience sending our daughter to The Learning Experience, East Finchley. The staff have been brilliant and the facilities are superb. Our little one has now settled in fully and runs into the centre on a morning and seems very happy there.”

– T.C.from East Finchley

“If there was another word better than excellent, that is the exact word I would use to describe The Learning Experience Nursery, including the staff. My son who had been struggling to cope in his previous nursery is now doing very well in this nursery. He loves it there and would cry when it was time for him to go home. This is one of the best decisions I have ever made for my child. I am so happy because my son is happy and thriving brilliantly.”

– M.S. from East Finchley

” I have been exceptionally impressed at the care, attention and dedication of the staff towards my daughter. It is so obvious that she thrives at The Learning Experience and is always so happy to be dropped off on her days in. You can see that the staff are attentive and nurturing to each individual child. The food provided to the children is nutritious and follows the healthy start recommended guidelines for children under 5. I am so pleased with the enthusiasm of the staff, they are all helpful and approachable. I am never worried when my daughter is in the nursery because the staff are proficient at updating the parents’ app which provides updates and pictures about your child’s day. I believe The Learning Experience is genuinely the best nursery I visited in the Finchley area and my family and I are due to move house and possibly area in April but because of how wonderful this place is we are considering staying in the area so our daughter can stay at this nursery. I couldn’t recommend it enough.”
