The Early Years Foundation Stage Curriculum for children in our Nursery and Reception classes comprises 7 areas:
Prime areas of learning
Communication and Language
Physical Development
Personal, Social and Emotional Development
Specific areas of learning
Literacy
Mathematics
Understanding the World
Expressive Arts and Design
During these two years the majority of teaching is completed through play, where the child learns about subjects and other people during games and practical activities. During the Reception year children are introduced to short sessions of whole class or group teaching for mathematics and for phonics, using the Read, Write, Inc. Programme and Mathematics Mastery.
