At Mighty Oaks School our Foundation Stage curriculum provides fun learning for all our children. Our early learning goals ensure that all children work towards the age-related knowledge, skills and understanding required at each developmental milestone.

Our curriculum focuses on enhancing your child’s personal, social, and emotional development with specific emphasis on their communication and English language skills. Children learn how to build relationships and get along with others. Everyone needs a friend to talk to and laugh with; it is important that all children learn how to get along with others including:

+ Learning to share

+ Waiting their turn

+ Understanding and being aware of others’ feelings

+ Listening to instructions

+ Helping, cooperating, and forming friendships with peers

We also support your child in four specific areas of academic learning, encouraging them to investigate and experience things, and to ‘have a go’, igniting your child’s curiosity and enthusiasm for learning in all these areas of learning:

+ Literacy

+ Mathematics

+ Understanding the World

+ Expressive Arts and Design

With active based learning we ensure all children concentrate for longer, keep on trying when they encounter difficulties and learn to enjoy their achievements. We place particular emphasis on encouraging children to develop their own ideas, make links between their ideas, and to develop strategies for solving problems and doing things well.
