At Little Stars we offer a variety of different, affordable sessions to suit every parent/carers situation. Our curriculum is based around the Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS). The EYFS has 7 areas of learning. They are divided into three prime areas and 4 specific areas of learning. It also outlines 3 characteristics of effective learning.
Whilst your child attends Little Stars, they will gain varied knowledge within all of these areas to enable their development to reach its full potential.

We use this as a tool, along with the children’s individual ideas and needs to impact our sessions every day. This also enables the ‘Key Person’ to plan for your child’s individual needs and development. We believe every child is unique and that their opinions, views and interests should be listened to, explored and supported. Every child is recognised and treated as an individual, with a framework of the highest ethical standards and equal opportunities.
We have weekly focus children. Our planning ideas come straight from the children’s ideas and from our Parents/ Carers input. Our planning ensures we meet all the 7 areas of learning and 3 characteristics of learning within the EYFS. Varied resources and activities are on offer indoor and outdoor for the children to freely explore and enhance their development.
