Early Years CurriculumReception children follow a programme designed to help them achieve what are known as the ‘Early Learning Goals’. These are targets that most children are expected to achieve by the time they leave the reception class and will provide a firm foundation for National Curriculum work in Year 1. We believe that children learn best through hands on practical experiences both inside the classroom and in an outdoor learning environment and by a balance of child initiated and adult led learning, therefore, all areas of the curriculum are delivered in this way as much as possible.
The EYFS curriculum is made up of 7 areas of learning:• Communication and language• Physical development• Personal, emotional and social development• Literacy• Maths• Understanding the world• Expressive arts and design
We record evidence of your child’s learning through a ‘Learning journey’. We also appreciate evidence from you to add to your child’s learning journey.
MathsReception Non-negotiables
• Children can count reliably from 1 – 20• Children can order numbers 1 – 20• Children can say one more or one less than a given number• Children can add two single-digit numbers by counting on• Children can subtract a single- digit number from another single- digit
number by counting back• Children can record using marks that they can interpret and explain• Children can recognise, create and explore patterns• Children can describe characteristics of shapes• Children can use comparative language e.g. more, less, heavier, lighter,
longer, shorter
LiteracyReception Non-negotiables
• Children can write their name • Children can use their phonic knowledge to write words which match their
spoken language • Children can write some irregular common words e.g. the, said, was • Children begin to write simple sentences which can be read themselves
and others • Children use their phonic knowledge to decode regular words and read
them aloud • Children can read some irregular words accurately • Children demonstrate understanding when talking to others about what
they have read.
HandwritingThe rules of the Cursive Style help:• To minimise confusion for the child as every letter starts on the line with an
entry stroke and leads out with an exit stroke;• With the flow of Cursive Writing as letters naturally flow into each other, it
is impossible to write separate letters without joining;• To form spacing between words as the child develops whole word
awareness;• To develop a child's visual memory;• All children's writing skills regardless of academic ability;• To develop skills of punctuation and grammar.
All children will initially be introduced to writing using a pencil, however, when they have mastered the cursive style, they will be awarded with their ‘Pen Licence’ and will be able to use a black pen.
