What is EYFS?
The Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS) is a comprehensive framework for children aged birth to five in the UK, focusing on their holistic development. It emphasizes individuality, and play-based learning, and covers various areas including communication, physical development, personal, social, and emotional growth, literacy, mathematics, and understanding of the world.
EYFS provides children with a strong foundation for future learning and ensures they are well-prepared for the transition to primary school. As a parent, you can support EYFS by encouraging play, reading together, and maintaining open communication with your child’s educators, actively participating in their early learning journey, and setting the stage for a successful educational future.
