Introduction Every child deserves the best possible start in life and the support that enables them to fulfil their potential. Children develop quickly in the early years and a child’s experiences between birth and age five have a major impact on their future life chances. A secure, safe and happy childhood is important in its own right. Good parenting and high quality early learning together provide the foundation children need to make the most of their abilities and talents as they grow up. (DfE, 2017) According to the 2017 EYFS Framework, four guiding principles should shape practice in Early Years: Every child is a unique child, who is constantly learning and can be resilient, capable, confident and self-assured Children learn to be strong and independent through positive relationships Children learn and develop well in enabling environments, in which their experiences respond to their individual needs and there is a strong partnership between practitioners and parents and/or carers Children develop and learn in different ways (the characteristics of effective teaching and learning) and at different rates. Our continuous provision should meet the needs of all children in early years setting, including children with special educational needs and disabilities. The Viridis EYFS curriculum supports practitioners in providing: Quality and consistency across the setting, so that every child makes good progress and no child gets left behind A secure foundation through learning and development opportunities which are planned around the needs and interests of each individual child and are assessed and reviewed regularly Partnership working between practitioners and with parents and/or carers Equality of opportunity and anti-discriminatory practice, ensuring that every child is included and supported 3
