Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS)

At Oak Tree Primary School, our early years provision is underpinned by our core values of Kindness, Respect, Resilience, Responsibility, Aspire, and Be Yourself. We are committed to providing a nurturing, stimulating environment where every child can flourish and develop a lifelong love of learning.

We believe that the early years are the foundation upon which all future learning is built. Our intent is to:

Value every child as an individual
Foster positive relationships through kindness and respect
Develop responsibility for ourselves and others

High expectations for all – aspire to achieve
Develop communication and language
Build strong foundations with resilience

Enable every child to thrive through kindness and support
Prepare children for the future with responsibility and aspiration
Foster a love of learning where children can be themselves

Our Commitment

We work in partnership with parents to promote children's learning and development and to raise their awareness about supporting children's readiness for starting school. We are committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of all children, ensuring that our early years provision provides a safe, healthy, and stimulating environment where every child can grow.
