Areas of learning

Reception Sharing a book is fun

Our provision is based on the Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS) framework for children aged 0 - 5 which is set in the context of the Every Child Matters agenda.

• Be healthy

• Stay safe

• Enjoy and Achieve

• Make a positive contribution

• Achieve economic well being

The Early Years Foundation Stage is divided into six areas of learning

• Personal Social and Emotional Development

• Communication Language and Literacy

• Problem Solving Reasoning and Numeracy

• Knowledge and Understanding of the World

• Physical Development

• Creative Development

Whilst the curriculum is planned to maximise learning within each of the six areas, the Early Years ethos is to promote cross-curricular experiences.

The framework allows continuity and progression between the Foundation Stage and Key Stage 1.
