We incorporate all seven areas of learning into the early year’s curriculum, ensuring the children have a well prepared, inviting, and stimulating environment. Staff provide a range of activities to cater for children’s individual interests and development needs, working towards the Early Years’ Outcomes – Early Learning Goals, across all areas of the curriculum.
All early year’s providers are required to meet certain standards set out in the Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS). One of the requirements is that members of staff use ongoing observations to monitor how your child is developing and then use this information to plan a challenging and enjoyable experience in all areas of their learning and development. Our method to help with planning and keeping track of progress is using an individual progress tracker. The tracker is divided into each area of learning and development, setting out the child’s progress across the prime and specific areas of learning from birth to five years.
We base your child's learning around the Early Years Foundation Stage Curriculum. Staff provide a range of activities to cater for children’s individual interests and development needs, working towards the Early Years’ Outcomes.
Electronic Learning Journals are an efficient and effective method for parents and carers to be ever more involved and in touch with their child’s learning and development.
Staff within the nursery routinely capture photographs and videos as part of their observation process. These are then enhanced with a description of the skills that are being demonstrated and the learning that is taking place, based on the EYFS.
We operate a Key Person system. Your child will have an individual Key Person who will observe progress and development. The Key Person approach gives every child the reassurance to feel secure and cared for, helping them to become familiar with the Nursery environment and to feel confident and safe within it.
The three PRIME areas are:
The four SPECIFIC areas are:
Our approach goes above and beyond the Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS) to foster deep level learning and optimise potential.
We offer a range of unique educational experiences which enable children to become successful, lifelong learners including:
Our Early Photography Programme provides practitioners with a unique insight into the way a child sees the world around them, making their interests visible whilst opening up opportunities for developing lines of enquiry. It enables practitioners to develop children’s ability to document their process and product whilst providing an interesting way of consulting with children, gathering their ideas, and feeding these into their evaluations.
