Early Years Entitlement Provision
Early Years Entitlement Provision
Welcome to our Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS), where every child's educational journey begins with wonder, discovery, and a strong sense of belonging. We proudly offer funded Early Years entitlement provision, giving young children the very best start in a nurturing, stimulating, and inclusive environment.
Our Early Years Offer
-
Funded Entitlement Places: We accept government-funded childcare entitlements—including the universal 15 hours and extended 30 hours for eligible working families, as well as funded places for eligible two-year-olds where applicable.
-
Learning Through Play: Our provision is carefully designed around child-led exploration and high-quality play. We balance purposeful adult-led activities with rich, independent play opportunities that spark curiosity, independence, and resilience.
-
A Nurturing, Inclusive Start: Every child is unique. Our experienced Early Years team ensures that all children—including those with emerging Special Educational Needs and Disabilities (SEND)—receive prompt, tailored support to help them flourish alongside their peers.
-
Seamless Transition into School: Because our nursery and reception settings work hand-in-hand, children in our Early Years provision enjoy a smooth, natural transition into school life, building familiar friendships and confidence in a space they already know and love.
What to Expect in Our EYFS Setting
-
Rich Indoor and Outdoor Environments: Our classrooms and outdoor learning areas are carefully crafted to support physical development, creativity, communication, and early literacy and numeracy skills.
-
Strong Home-School Partnerships: We believe parents are a child's first and most important educators. We use regular communication, sharing journals, and informal catch-ups to keep you closely involved in your child's daily adventures and milestones.
-
Qualified, Passionate Practitioners: Our dedicated early years professionals are trained to observe, support, and extend children's interests, ensuring every child feels safe, valued, and inspired.
The early years lay the foundations for a lifetime of learning. We provide the warmth, the space, and the spark for little minds to grow big dreams.
