Curriculum

In the foundation stage (Nursery and Reception) the Early Years Foundation Stage curriculum is used to inform planning. This is divided into the seven areas of learning:

Physical Development
Communication and Language
Personnel, Social and Emotional Development
Mathematics
Expressive arts and design
Understanding of the World
Literacy

To deliver this we use a themed approach through topics which change half termly. To ensure continuity and progression the Nursery and Reception topics are the same and are on a two-year rolling programme. The potential learning is jointly planned for in the foundation garden on a weekly basis by the foundation staff.
