Early Years Foundation Stage

At Coton in the Elms Primary School we work closely with all parents to ensure that children in the Early Years Foundation Stage have access to a rounded learning experience, tailored to individual needs. We are keen to ensure that children develop academically, socially, emotionally and physically. We embrace the characteristics of effective learning from Every Child Matters (2021)

CHARACTERISTICS OF EFFECTIVE LEARNING IN OUR SCHOOL

Our curriculum at Holy Trinity is based upon the EYFS Framework, as well as the National Curriculum. Our bridging documents ensure that children remember what they have learnt in Reception and can absorb new knowledge into larger ideas. Each subject in KS1 is valued as its own discipline and has a knowledge and skills map, which is delivered through various exciting ways. We aim to ensure that the knowledge and skills learned in EYFS are then applied and built upon later in KS1. Therefore, learning is progressive from EYFS into KS1.
