Overview
The British Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS) and our Hats-On approach is Tender Height School framework curriculum focus.
The EYFS sets standard for learning, development and care for children from birth to five years old which is a progressive and accountable system for early years’ development and school preparedness skills for young learners.
Through this framework, our nurseries’ children are exposed to learning experiences that reach across the curriculum and engage the whole child.
We at Tender Height School understand the fact that children learn effectively when they are enjoying themselves and are having fun. Hence, we promote ‘Learning through Play’ as children of different ages and stages of development work towards different goals.
Based on our unique Hats-On learning approach, lessons are hands-on and interactive. They are designed specifically with the appropriate age and developmental level of the children in mind.
EYFS Curriculum, Principles & Framework
Children are born ready, able and eager to learn.
Development is not an automatic process; however, it depends on each unique child having opportunities to interact in positive relationships and enabling environment.
By using the established British Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS) framework, we ensure that children are exposed to planned developmental play challenges and multi-dimensional locomotor activities which build engagement and curiosity in the early years education.
