At GES Cairo we believe that every child deserves to access the best possible opportunities and to reach their full potential; starting from our Early Years Foundation Stage by setting firm foundations that are built upon throughout their school journey.

Our broad curriculum is based on the National Curriculum of England. The ‘EYFS Framework’ and ‘Development Matters’ documents guide our teaching and learning, the enhanced provision and targets for each student’s development.

Children in EYFS will develop physically, verbally, and emotionally as we embed a positive attitude towards learning through a play-based learning environment. EYFS teachers support development by continuously assessing each child's skills, knowledge and interests to inform targets for their next steps in learning while monitoring and tracking their attainment and progress.

Children will learn and develop across the seven main areas of learning’

The Prime Areas
Personal, Social and Emotional Development (Self-regulation Managing Self and Building Relationships) Communication and Language (Listening, Understanding; and Speaking) Physical Development (Gross motor and fine motor skills)

The Specific Areas
Literacy (Reading, Oracy and Writing) Mathematics (Number and Numerical patterns) Understanding of the World (Past and present; People, Culture and Communities; and The natural world) Expressive Arts and Design (Creating with Materials and Being Imaginative and Expressive)

We implement these areas by providing a safe and stimulating learning environment that allows children to be unique, constantly learning through discovery and challenge while developing their resilience, independence, capabilities and self-confidence in readiness for the Primary Stage.
