EYFS

At St John’s Highbury Vale, in the Early Years Foundation Stage, we provide a stimulating, safe, happy, learning environment, both indoors and outdoors, where children quickly become confident and eager learners.

Our Reception curriculum is based on the Early Years Foundation Stage Framework. A statutory document which has seven Areas of Development; Personal, Social and Emotional Development, Communication and Language, Physical Development all of which are Prime Areas, the remaining four Areas; Literacy, Mathematics, Understanding the World and Expressive Arts and Design make up the Specific Areas.

We plan provision so that:

  • All children become confident, independent, life long learners, who enjoy learning and exploring
  • Children develop a strong sense of self while also learning to play, negotiate and co-operate with others
  • Children experience a broad and balanced curriculum reinforced by high quality teaching and learning that meets individual needs
  • We can work in partnership with parents so that parents are fully involved in their child’s development. Parents are included in their child’s provision through Tapestry, an online learning journal, to make it easy to track children’s progress – as well as providing parents with special memories to treasure. Parents also welcome to come and visit our classroom at the end of every half term to see their child’s work
