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.
