The Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS) outlines what adults must do to help children learn and develop and to be healthy and safe. The guide on the line below is for parents/carers of children from birth to five years old. It will help you find out more about your child’s learning and development in the EYFS. 

​The EYFS

At Hopscotch, we follow the EYFS National Curriculum, which covers 7 areas of learning.
  • Physical Development*
  • Personal Social Emotional Development *
  • Communication and Language*
  • Maths
  • Literacy
  • Expressive Arts and Design
  • Knowledge and Understanding of the World

​The 3 prime areas (marked * above) create the fundamental building blocks of learning, and are most essential for children’s readiness for future learning and healthy development. ​​
