The EYFS is made up of six areas of learning and development:
  
1. Personal, Social and Emotional development (PSED)
 2. Communication, Language and Literacy (CLL)
 3. Problem Solving, Reasoning and Numeracy (PSRN)
 4. Knowledge and Understanding of the World (KUW)
 5. Physical development (PD)
 6. Creative development (CD)
 
These areas are equally important, connected and underpinned by the principles of the EYFS.

A Child's Key Person 

Each child is allocated a key person, who plays a vital role in a child’s life, is consistent, sensitive and responsive to the child’s needs. They engage, interact and connect with a child and their family. They also observe, assess, record and plan.
 
Children learn by being active, organising their own learning experiences, using language and interacting with others.  These essential skills ensure success for each child as s/he commences the climb up the Bridgewater School ladder to G.C.S.E. and A level.
