Welcome to our EYFS (Early Years Foundation Stage) page! This is where our youngest learners, in Nursery and Reception, begin their exciting school journey at Chesterfield.

Our EYFS environment is a vibrant, nurturing, and stimulating space where children learn through play and exploration. We understand that every child is unique, and we focus on developing their individual strengths and interests, fostering curiosity and a lifelong love for learning.

Our curriculum is based on the seven areas of learning and development:

• Prime Areas:
  • Communication and Language
  • Physical Development
  • Personal, Social and Emotional Development
• Specific Areas:
  • Literacy
  • Mathematics
  • Understanding the World
  • Expressive Arts and Design

Through carefully planned activities, both indoors and outdoors, our dedicated team supports children in developing essential skills, building confidence, and making excellent progress. We believe in strong partnerships with families to ensure a smooth and happy start to school life and a confident transition into Year 1.
