The EYFS (Early Years Foundation Stage) sets the standards that all early years’ providers must meet to ensure that children learn and develop well and are kept healthy and safe. It promotes teaching and learning to ensure children’s ‘school readiness’ and gives children the broad range of knowledge and skills that provide the right foundation for good future progress through school and life. The four overarching principles of the EYFS that shape practice in early years settings are; the unique child, positive relationships, enabling environments and that children develop and learn in different ways and at different rates.
The EYFS curriculum consists of 7 areas of learning which are further split into 3 prime areas of learning and 4 specific areas of learning.
