When pupils enter the Reception class (Owls) they will be following the Early Years Foundation Stage Curriculum. It is likely that many pupils will have already embarked on this learning journey in previous pre-school and nursery settings. There is a strong emphasis on learning through play, pupil initiated learning and learning outside the classroom. The curriculum is organised into three prime areas of learning and four specific areas of learning:

Physical development |
