As part of the Early Years Foundation Stage Framework our services for children are underpinned by the overarching principles, which are:

• 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; and

children develop and learn in different ways and at different rates. The framework covers the education and care of all children in early years provision, including children with special educational needs and disabilities.

believes that 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.
