Why Cambridge Early Years?
Our approach
We developed Cambridge Early Years in collaboration with trusted early years experts, so it reflects the very latest educational thinking. Our approach is built around these key principles:
Experience
Learning should complement the social and cultural factors (like experiences of home and community) that shape a child’s learning and development.
Active
Children should be actively involved in their own learning, and helped to develop competence, responsibility, confidence and self-worth.
Balance
Learning should balance physical, cognitive, language and communication, and social and emotional development.
Play
Learning should be age appropriate, play based and child centred. It should include both child- and adult-led activities.
Active
EYFS should help children transition successfully to primary school, moving from informal, play-based learning to teaching that is more formal.
