Director's Comments
In a relaxed environment, where trained teachers provide a curriculum relevant to young children, your child will enjoy measurable, long-term social and intellectural benefits. The early learning goals below set out what is expected for most children by the end of the Foundation Stage and these goals are set in context within six areas of learning: 1) personal, social and emotional development. 2) language and literacy. 3) mathematical development. 4) knowledge and understanding of the world. 5) physical development. 6) creaetive development
