EYFS F2 Curriculum
Children in our Reception classes follow the Early Years Foundation Stage curriculum and much of the teaching and learning is done through play based and child initiated activities both inside and outdoors. Taking the children’s interests as a starting point, the teachers plan a variety of activities designed to develop and extend children’s learning and understanding.
Our curriculum enables us to tailor the education of each child by identifying and planning for their next steps of development through both the prime and the specific areas of learning.
The prime areas are:
Communication and Language
Physical Development
Person, Social and Emotional Development
The specific areas are:
Literacy
Mathematics
Understanding the World
Expressive Arts and Design
