Early Years (EYFS)

Reception and Nursery curriculum

Early Years at Harbour View

Our two Reception classes are led by Mrs Sharma and Miss Taylor. Many of our children enter Reception below age-related expectations, particularly in communication and language. Our 'Harbour View Explorers' curriculum is designed to close these gaps rapidly through language-rich, play-based learning.

Every day, children experience story time, talk for writing, number talks and carefully planned continuous provision. Our outdoor area includes a mud kitchen, construction zone, water play and a reading den. Systematic phonics (Little Wandle) begins from day one, and we work closely with families to support learning at home.
