Early Learning Goals
During these early years, our curriculum covers six broad areas of learning. These learning goals focus on what children need to learn and set out what children are expected to achieve by the end of the foundation stage.
Personal, Emotional & Emotional Development (Social Studies)
Children will learn to be confident, take an interest in things, know what their own needs are, tell the difference between right and wrong, and be able to dress and undress. During the years in the nursery classes, the organizing theme in social studies is family and community celebration. Nursery pupils learn social studies by:
- Comparing and contrasting the past with the present
- Demonstrating understanding of how geography affects the way people live
- Comparing and contrasting people of the same and different cultures
- Demonstrating understanding of bargaining, bartering and money
- Participating in the democratic approach to decision making
- Understanding how current events affect our daily lives
