Early Years Curriculum
Early Years Lead - Mrs Price
The Early Years Foundation Stage at
Farnborough Road Infant School.
At Farnborough Road Infant School, we welcome children into our Caterpillar Nursery Class from the age of 2 years. Children move to our Butterfly or Ladybird Nursery Classes when they start ‘Big Nursery’ at 3 and 4 years old. Children then move into one of our four Reception classes for their final year in the Early Years Foundation Stage.
This key stage is such an important time in your child's school life, where routines are established and relationships are built between children, home and school. We will always do our best to work closely with you, to ensure that your child has a smooth and happy learning journey with us at Farnborough Road Infant School.
Our staff will plan and guide children’s activities, reflecting on the different ways that children learn. Children will be given the opportunity to learn through the characteristics of effective learning. These are:
- playing and exploring
- being active learners
- being creative and thinking critically.
