Al Ain nursery combining the UK EYFS with Montessori methods for ages 1 to 4
Little Pearls Nursery in Al Toweyya, Al Ain, is run by Global Educational Solutions, an education organisation working in the UAE and India. It takes children from 1 year of age until their fourth birthday. The programme pairs the UK Early Years Foundation Stage with Montessori methods: teachers plan across the seven EYFS areas, track progress through a learning journey with termly reports, and use Montessori materials for early literacy and numeracy. Short daily sessions introduce Arabic, prayers and Islamic values, and teachers also run music, physical education and an afternoon club. The nursery describes itself as inclusive, with a SEN coordinator, a safeguarding officer and a parent liaison officer. It follows a three-term, 10-month year with regular, extended and hourly sessions between 7:30 am and 5 pm.
Qualified EYFS educators; teachers also run music, PE and an afternoon club; regular staff training.
Inclusive setting with a Special Educational Needs Coordinator (SENCO); parents consulted on in-class support.

A good place for your child and you can count on it. However, new rules: if you do not pay in full your child will be kicked out, so keep that in mind.
I leave my kids there knowing they are in good hands, they really care about the kids and have good energy with them. They learn, play and have cute events.
