THE PRE-SCHOOL CURRICULUMOur Pre-school is registered with OFSTED to promote education as well as care to our Foundation Stage children. The Government Funding we claim for each child attending requires a comprehensive curriculum to provide opportunities for the children to develop towards the EARLY LEARNING GOALS (ELGs) set by SCAA (School Curriculum and Assessment Authority).The ELGs cover six categories: • Personal and social development • Language and literacy • Problem solving, Reasoning and Numeracy • Knowledge and understanding of the World • Physical development • Creative development The curriculum is planned each half term by the Senior Practitioner and staff. A suggested two year rolling plan of themes has been selected. Each theme is highlighted with relevant activities. The age and interests of the children attending, plus resources available, are taken into consideration. The Learning Intension codes appear on the curriculum plan each half term and are taken from the Practice Guidance for the Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS). A summary of each of the Learning Areas is displayed in Pre-school – please ask if you would like to know more. The practitioners use on-going observations to assess the level of each child attending and from these can plan the ‘Next Steps’ needed and can link specific activities with new Learning Intentions in the next half term curriculum plan. The learning opportunities are evaluated throughout the term, with strengths and weaknesses recorded for future reference. Each child is given the opportunity to build on his or her knowledge and capabilities, with progress recorded in their record book. The curriculum is planned carefully to ensure all learning objectives for Foundation Stage children are adequately covered across all the sessions, over the course of 2 years. Foundation Stage education is optional so please note that children only attending part of the educational week will only receive part of the Educational Curriculum.  |
