Early Years Foundation Stage – Reception
Our pupils follow a fabulous and busy curriculum, based on the EYFS seven areas of learning:
- Communication and language
- Physical development
- Personal, social and emotional development
- Mathematics
- Literacy
- Understanding the world
- Expressive arts and design
Teachers and other staff carry out focused observations of children in order to assess their progress and achievements. The results of these observations have a direct impact on the planning process.

Assessment
