We follow the Foundation Stage Curriculum as set out by the DFE. There are seven areas of learning.
Three Prime Areas:
Personal, Social and Emotional Development

Four Specific Areas:
Literacy
Mathematics
Understanding the World
Expressive Arts and Design
Our day consists of teaching times during Letters and Sounds, Numbers and Patterns and focus activities as well as opportunities for children to follow their own interests during child initiated times.
We strive to ensure the children’s early years’ experience is happy, active, exciting, fun and secure and also supports their development and learning needs.
