Well done to Early Years on a superb first half term.
Welcome to our Early Years Foundation Stage
Meet the Team
Class Teacher and EYFS lead – Claire Rhodes
Nursery Nurse – Sue Gray
Teaching Assistant – Sharleen Ellis

In EYFS, we follow the development matters statements. The children’s learning and development is taught through seven areas of learning, which are:
-
Communication and Language
-
Physical Development
-
Personal, Social and Emotional Development
-
Literacy
-
Mathematics
-
Understanding the World
-
Expressive Arts and Design
At Glenaire, our Foundation Stage staff whole-heartedly believe in encouraging and developing child-initiated learning. This approach means that the children are the originators of an activity and are directing their own learning, which results in extremely high levels of interest and engagement.
