Steeton,
We follow the Early Years Foundation Stage (eyfs) programme – which aims to help
young children achieve the five ‘every child matters’ outcomes. These are: Be
healthy Stay safe Enjoy and achieve Make a positive contribution Achieve
economic well-being This will be achieved by: Setting the standards for learning
development and care that young children should experience when they are
attending a setting outside their family home – ensuring that every child makes
progress and that no child is left behind. Providing for equality of opportunity
and anti-discriminatory practice – which ensures that every child is included
and not disadvantaged because of ethnicity, culture or religion, home language,
family background, learning difficulties or disabilities, gender or ability.
Creating the framework for partnership working between parents and professionals
and between all the settings that the child attends. Improving quality and
consistency in the early years sector through a universal set of standards which
apply to all settings – ending the distinction between care and learning in the
existing frameworks, and providing the basis for the inspection and regulation
regime Laying a secure foundation for future learning through learning and
development that is planned around the individual needs and interests of the
child, and informed by the use of ongoing observational assessment. With our
emphasis being on the following: To have fun and take part in lots of activities
To build their confidence To develop a sense of belonging For the children to
feel they matter
