CURRICULUM
The Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS) Statutory Framework was revised in December 2023. This document can be found at the following link.. EYFS Statutory Framework 2023
Our curriculum is based around a different theme each term. The themes have been selected purposefully, to best reflect the needs and interests of our children, and to ensure learning is progressive and embedded within an inspiring context.
Our curriculum has been intricately planned, based on the skills and knowledge we intend our children to develop during their time in the reception year and beyond. Our curriculum enables children space and time to develop interests, fascinations and wonder, which drives our planning to take children to their next step in learning, and ensures they can reach their potential.
The EYFS Statutory Framework states the following...
'All children deserve the care and support they need to have the best start in life. Children learn and develop at a faster rate from birth to five years old than at any other time in their lives, so their experiences in early years have a major impact on their future life chances. A secure, safe, and happy childhood is important in its own right. Good parenting and high-quality early learning provide the foundation children need to fulfil their potential.'
The EYFS curriculum is divided into 7 Educational Programmes:
Communication and Language
Personal, Social and Emotional Development
Physical Development
Literacy
Mathematics
Understanding the World
Expressive Arts and Design
We provide exciting and inspiring activities and experiences for children under each of these areas of learning.
