Our Curriculum

 

Our curriculum is based on the Early Years Foundation Stage Framework.

The Foundation stage is divided into seven areas of learning:

 

Personal, Social and Emotional Development

Communication and Language

Physical Development

Understanding the World

Mathematics

Literacy

Expressive Art and Design

 

All seven areas of the curriculum are connected.

We value that every child is different. We aim to develop his/her own individual skills, knowledge and independence.

 

Children take part in a balance of self chosen activities and adult led activities. Sometimes working by themselves, as part of a group or as a whole class. All activities are carefully designed to enable all children to make progress in all areas of learning. Learning through play is particularly important.

 

The school day

 

8.50 Start of the day
