We believe children learn well through play with the support of experienced, qualified, interested adults who can scaffold and extend their learning and develop language.  In the Foundation Stage, children have daily Phonics and Maths lessons.  Literacy lessons are linked to topic themes. Guided activities with an adult and free flow play opportunities allow children to embed new learning.  

We use Development Matters to accompany and deliver our planning, which you can view by clicking on the link below:
