Specific areas of learning at our Cheshire Day Nursery

We cover specific areas of learning for all our children at our Cheshire Day Nursery.  These include:

  • Literacy.
  • Mathematics
  • Understanding the world
  • Expressive arts and design.

For each area, the level of progress that children are expected to have attained by the end of the Early Years Foundation Stage is defined by the Early Learning Goals. These goals state what it is expected that children will know, and be able to do, by the end of the reception year of their education.

The Development Matters guidance sets out the likely stages of progress a child makes along their learning journey towards the Early Learning Goals. Our setting has regard to these matters when we assess children and plan for their learning. Our programme supports children to develop the knowledge, skills and understanding
