The children in Elvet Class receive learning experiences based on the Early Years Foundation Stage curriculum and Year 1 of the National Curriculum. Children have access to an indoor and outdoor learning environment.
There are seven areas of learning and development that shape the provision for children in Reception at St Oswald’s. All areas of learning and development are important and inter-connected.
Three areas are particularly important for building a foundation for igniting children’s curiosity and enthusiasm for learning, forming relationships and thriving.
These are the prime areas:
• communication and language
• physical development
• personal, social and emotional development
The specific areas are:
• literacy
• mathematics
• understanding the world
• expressive arts and design
The Early Learning Goals are what children in Reception work towards.
