Welcome to Reception!
In the EYFS, there are 7 areas of learning which form the core of all that we teach in the classroom. These areas are split into the 'Prime' and 'Specific' areas.
Prime areas:
Physical Development (PD)
Communication and Language (CL)
Personal Social Emotional Development (PSED)
Specific areas:
Maths (M)
Literacy (L)
Understanding the world (UTW)
Expressive arts and design (EAD)
Some helpful links for parents...
In order to support the learning of your child across each of these areas, there is a document which explains the types of activities your child may be doing to demonstrate their ability in these areas. This document is called 'What to expect, when' and is available at the following web address:

As a School we follow the Read Write Inc. phonics scheme. If you would like to learn more about the scheme please look at the following website where lots of information is available:
