What is the Accreditation?

It's a step-by-step guide to improve your provision and practice. Enhance your business potential, bring your team together and create a truly extraordinary environment for your children.
There are six mandatory elements to the Accreditation pathway, each broken down into solutions for you to work through and reflect upon.

Why is The Curiosity Approach Academy the only place to implement the approach?
Because this is where the journey began. The Curiosity Approach Academy is the official home of The Curiosity Approach, created by founders Stephanie Bennett and Lyndsey Hellyn to help educators, leaders and settings understand the approach deeply and implement it with confidence.
Join us for:
💫 Authentic training directly from the founders
💫 A clear, supportive pathway towards accreditation
💫 Practical resources to help you bring ideas to life
💫 Coaching, community and guidance so you’re never doing it alone
💫 A journey rooted in child development, play, relationships and
reflective practice
This is more than learning about The Curiosity Approach.
It is learning with the people who created it, alongside a global community of educators walking the journey with you.
So what is it that I'm getting?
You're getting access to our Masterplan membership. FULL access to our Accreditation AND coaching from Lyndsey & Stephanie, brand new content each month, support for group settings and lone workers, a year's worth of team meetings, access to over 6000 other educators just like you, a 26 week step-by-step implementation plan, a vault of all of our most valuable content. And as long as you're paying each month you'll get access to EVERYTHING!
Who is this for?
Anyone! The core ingredient when adopting The Curiosity Approach®
is wanting to make a change for your children. You really want to make a difference, but you may be lacking the clarity, vision, direction and confidence to make the change. Which is where we come in...
How is the journey delivered?
The Master Plan is delivered through our online Academy, giving you flexible access to learning materials, toolkits, resources and support wherever you are in the world. But this is more than an online portal.
You’ll follow a clear, supportive pathway that helps you learn, reflect, implement and grow at your own pace, with live sessions, coaching, community and practical guidance alongside you.
Accreditation is available when you’re ready, but the journey begins with learning, support and meaningful change.
What happens after I complete the accreditation?
Your accreditation is valid for 24 months, after which you’ll have the opportunity to apply for re-accreditation.
If you maintain an active membership, you’ll remain part of our community, connecting with a growing network of accredited settings and practitioners. You’ll also have access to ongoing professional development and the chance to deepen your journey through our mastery programme.
Can I cancel?
We believe in the power of The Curiosity Approach, but we also want you to feel completely confident in your decision.
That’s why we offer a 14-day cooling-off period, giving you the flexibility to explore the accreditation risk-free. After this period, you are committed to the full 12-month payment plan.
I need more help...
Of course, we're here to answer any questions you may have. Just drop us an email to [email protected] or call us on 01164 300 200.
