Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS)
Within our Acorns class, we embark on an inspiring and engaging play-based curriculum offering a mix of child-initiated and adult-led learning opportunities. The children have 'free-flow' access to our beautiful indoor and large outdoor spaces where children can be creative, investigate and explore.
The curriculum across the EYFS is based on the principles of Birth to 5 Matters.
All children develop in different ways and development is not a linear or automatic process. It depends on each unique child having opportunities to interact in positive relationships and enabling environments that encourage their engagement and recognise their strengths. All children have agency and curiosity to learn, and will interact with other people and the world around them in different ways. Understanding these different ways of knowing about the world is central to understanding who children are and how best to support their development.
