Early Years Foundation Stage
The following four themes and principles guide all early years’ practitioners working with children. They are closely linked with the Government’s agenda for children as set out in the Statutory Framework for the Early Years Foundation Stage. 

A Unique Child

Every child is a unique child who is constantly learning and can be resilient, capable, confident and self-assured. 

Enabling Environments 

Children learn and develop well in enabling environments, in which their experiences respond to their individual needs and there is a strong partnership between practitioners, parents and carers. 

Positive Relationships

Children learn to be strong and independent through positive relationships. 

Learning and Development  

Children develop and learn in different ways. The Framework covers education and care of all children in the early years provision, including children with special educational needs and disabilities. 
Learning is guided by the children’s developmental needs and flourishes when the children are given time and space to observe, explore and investigate the environment and engage with it. Empathetic practitioners play an active part in engaging the children with the favourable environment. They facilitate the child’s need to learn, not only from them but also from their peers and by themselves.
