Early Years at Cheslyn Hay Primary Academy
Where great beginnings never end
Early Years is about developing key learning skills such as listening, speaking, concentration, persistence and learning to work together and co-operate. Our curriculum is well-planned around seven areas of learning and development.
Our aims at Cheslyn Hay are:
To provide a secure environment where all children have the right to feel safe and happy.
To provide a stimulating environment where learning is fun.
To establish a partnership with parents and carers for the education of their children.
To ensure the smooth transfer from home to Foundation Stage and Foundation Stage to Key Stage 1.
To encourage all children to become independent autonomous learners.
To provide equal opportunities for all children to develop to their full potential and be respectful and appreciative of others
To provide a well-balanced curriculum for each child to develop socially, emotionally, physically and intellectually.
A good teacher takes a hand, opens a mind and touches a heart.
