Within the Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS) at Packmoor Ormiston Academy we aim to;
Give each child a happy, positive and enjoyable start to their school life within a safe and secure environment.
Establish solid foundations and foster a deep love of learning.
Enable each child, through encouragement and high expectations, to develop socially, emotionally, physically and intellectually in order to thrive in a diverse and ever- changing world.
Offer a structure for learning that has a range of starting points and unlimited opportunity for development.
Offer a broad and rich curriculum.
Encourage children to develop independence within a nurturing and supportive atmosphere.
Support children to build relationships through the development of social skills such as cooperation and sharing.
Help each child to recognise their own strengths and achievements by experiencing success and developing their confidence to work towards personal goals.
