Early Years

 

In the Early Years, we draw from the Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS) framework from the Uk. Within this framework, we have the 3 prime areas which are particularly important for building a foundation for igniting children’s curiosity and enthusiasm for learning, forming relationships and thriving. These areas are:

• Communication and Language

• Physical Development

• Personal, Social and Emotional Development. 

 

We support children in the 4 Specific areas, through which the 3 Prime areas are strengthened and applied. These areas are:

• Literacy

• Mathematics

• Understanding the World

• Expressive Arts and Design

 

Our aim is to provide a stimulating learning environment that offers high quality, and continuous provision which is key to supporting children’s learning and development. Children will be highly motivated and eager to join in with activities that are designed to develop high levels of curiosity, imagination and concentration.

 

Our continuous observations and assessments, using the EYFS Development Matters 2020 statements ensure children are always moving towards the Early Learning Goals within the EYFS framework and this ensures they are well prepared and have built a solid foundation for the rest of their educational careers.
