Reggio Emilia inspired nurseries in W3 (Acton, Bedford Park)

A Reggio Emilia inspired nursery follows an approach to early education that began in the Italian city of Reggio Emilia after the Second World War. It sees young children as capable, curious researchers. Learning grows from their interests into long projects explored through art, building, conversation and play, and adults record children’s thinking so it can be shared and revisited. In England, Reggio-inspired nurseries also follow the Early Years Foundation Stage. Read our guide: Reggio Emilia nurseries explained
