Our Early Years Developmental Framework
Grounded in EYFS & Birth to Five Matters

Core principles of our framework:
- Child-led, exploratory learning
- Connection with nature, self, and community
- A balance of academic, physical, and emotional wellbeing
- Multilingual and multicultural exposure
- Tailored learning journeys tracked and shared with parents
