Class Description - Curriculum
We follow the Early Years Foundation Stage Curriculum incorporated with Jolly Phonics Program and the International Early Years Curriculum to enrich teaching and learning. Oshwal Academy Nairobi Nursery provides the opportunity for our students to learn the skills necessary to further their education and to function successfully in an enabling environment in the modern world. It strives to develop each student’s intellectual, emotional, physical and social growth to their full potential.
Within each of these settings, staffs work with children using play as an important method of learning.
The curriculum consists of seven areas of learning, three being the prime areas of learning and four specific areas of learning.
Learning Through play
Prime areas of learning and development.
The three prime areas below are about children’s curiosity, enthusiasm for learning and how to learn and form relationships.
- Communication and language development
- Physical development
- Personal, social and emotional development
The four specific areas below help with applying the prime areas.
- Literacy development
- Maths
- Understanding the world
- Expressive arts and design
How children learn
Oshwal Academy Nairobi Nursery uses the ‘characteristics of effective learning’ when planning educational programmes. These are:
- Playing and exploring – investigating and experiencing things, and ‘having a go’
- Active learning – concentrating and not giving up if they encounter difficulties, and enjoy achievements
- Creating and thinking critically – having and developing their own ideas, making links between ideas, and developing strategies for doing things.
Learning Journals
Children make progress in all seven areas of learning through developmental, age-related achievements. This enables them to reach the early learning goals at the end of the school reception year.
The goals provide our school and settings with an indicator as to whether your child is working within the expected stage of learning and development. Assessments are made through ongoing observations and the school will work with you as partners in learning to build a profile of your child’s learning journey through the foundation stage
