Reception

The Early Years Foundation Stage

When the children start in our Reception classes, they will be in the Early Years Foundation Stage of learning, which began in their pre-school stage of education and covers all ages up to five years.  The curriculum for the Foundation Stage builds on a child’s previous learning, and underpins all future learning by fostering and developing the seven areas of learning:-

 

There are three prime areas:

  • Communication and language
  • Physical development
  • Personal, social and emotional development

and four specific areas through which the three prime areas are strengthened and applied. 

 

The specific areas are:

  • Literacy
  • Mathematics
  • Understanding the world
  • Expressive arts and design

Our curriculum is planned to provide the children with a rich mix of experiences, both indoors and outdoors.
