"The curriculum is a top-level plan of everything the early years setting wants the children to learn." Development Matters 2021

In our Reception class at Shirland Primary School, we follow the Early Years Statutory framework 2021. We use the Development Matters 2021 guidance to help support our teaching and curriculum coverage. Development Matters helps us to know what children should be able to achieve at each stage in their early life.

At Shirland Primary School, we understand that each child is unique and has an individual way of learning. This is why we plan our activities to suit many different learning styles and abilities.
