Raynsford Early Years Foundation Stage Curriculum
The statutory framework for the EYFS sets the standards for the learning, development, and care of children from birth to 5 years. The guidance within the EYFS framework ensures that early years leaders, practitioners, teachers, teaching assistants, and childminders, can effectively support and nurture the learning and development of children in their setting, from birth to five years of age.
Play, and more importantly learning through play, is an essential part of the Early Years Foundation Stage. As children move into the reception year, a greater emphasis is placed on learning skills that will support and prepare children for the learning expectations in Year 1.
