How we support children’s learning, development and confidence through play every day.
The Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS) Framework explains how and what your child will be learning to support their healthy development.
Your child will be learning skills, acquiring new knowledge and demonstrating their understanding through seven areas of learning and development.
Children should mostly develop three prime areas first. These are:
These prime areas are those most essential for your child’s healthy development and future learning.
As children grow, the prime areas will help them to develop skills in four specific areas. These are:
These seven areas are used to plan your child’s learning and activities. Each child is assessed using the EYFS through a variety of observations made while they are playing.
In the pre-school room, we also work on letters and sounds to encourage phonic and rhyming sounds in preparation for the child moving on to primary school.
Our Star pathway supports babies and young toddlers as they build secure relationships, communication, movement and confidence through sensory play and responsive care.
