How We Support Your Child’s Development

At Butterflies Pre-school, we follow the Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS) framework to ensure every child gets the best start in life. The EYFS outlines key areas of learning and development that help children grow into confident, curious, and capable learners.

The Seven Areas of Learning

The EYFS framework is divided into seven key areas:

1. Communication & Language – Encouraging conversations, stories, and vocabulary development.
2. Physical Development – Supporting motor skills through play and movement.
3. Personal, Social & Emotional Development – Helping children build relationships and develop self-confidence.
4. Literacy – Introducing early reading and writing skills.
5. Mathematics – Teaching number recognition, shapes, and problem-solving.
6. Understanding the World – Exploring nature, different cultures, and technology.
7. Expressive Arts & Design – Encouraging creativity through music, art, and imaginative play.

At Butterflies, we incorporate these areas into daily activities that are fun, engaging, and age-appropriate. Whether it’s outdoor play, sensory activities, or group storytelling, every moment is designed to help your child learn through play.
