Our Curriculum
Nursery Wolverhampton Follow The EYFS
The first five years of life are imperative for children’s learning and development. This is an exciting time for your child as they learn and make sense of the world around them. We incorporate children’s interests into our learning environment, weekly planning and adult led activities.
The statutory framework for the Early Years Foundation Stage set the standard for learning and development of children aged birth to five years. The four guiding principles help to shape our approach:
Every child is a unique child, who is constantly learning and can be resilient, capable, confident, and self-assured.
The seven areas of learning and development
For children under the age of two, the EYFS states that children are to solely to focus on three areas, known as the prime areas which include;
Communication and Language
Your child will experience a language rich environment; explore sound, rhyme, songs and stories and develop their confidence in expressing their thoughts, feelings and opinions.
Physical Development
Your child will develop fine and gross motor skills, enabling them to become more independent. Children will learn about their body and how to look after it. Children will access the outdoor environment daily and participate in yoga, funky fingers and sensory activities.
Personal Social, and Emotional Development
Your child will develop a positive sense of themselves; form positive relationships and respect for others; develop social skills and learn how to manage their feelings; understand appropriate behaviour in groups; and have confidence in their abilities.
For children aged of three and above, the EYFS states that children are to focus on prime areas alongside the specific areas which include;
Literacy
Starting with simple mark-making and the task of learning to hold a pencil, children develop writing skills through several structured and free-play activities.
Mathematics
Your child will develop an understanding of maths through practical activities while at our day nursery in Wolverhampton.
Understanding the World
Your child will explore the world around them through practical activities, such as sowing seeds in their gardens and making good use of their rural environment.
