Reggio at Bromley

The Reggio approach is an education philosophy based on the principles of respect and responsibility. The Junior school adopted a Reggio inspired style of teaching as they wanted to find an approach that fostered dialogue and improved oral language in the new entrant area. The children are engaged in learning through exploration and discovery in a supportive, enriching environment. Teaching is still done using best practice and underpinned by the NZ curriculum, however the children use their prior knowledge and interests to drive their learning. Reggio inspired learning has been running in the Junior school since April 2010 and there has been compelling evidence that this is an effective way to enhance and improve teaching and learning.
