Our curriculum – Aspire

Aspire is our STARS unique curriculum which ensures everyone in the company focuses on ensuring the requirements of the Early Years Foundation Stage Statutory Guidance (DfE, 2017) are met across all our provisions.

Aspire embeds the understanding of child development in the Early Years Outcomes (DfE, 2013) guidance, meeting the needs of every individual child through quality interactions and extended learning opportunities.

There are 5 main strands to our curriculum:

Learn  We aspire for our children to learn about themselves, their communities and the environment.

Achieve  We aspire for our children to achieve through Early Intervention and Inclusion, through learning Language for Life, and through early teaching experiences.

Protect  We aspire to protect our children through our policies, procedures and multi-agency work.

Develop  We aspire to develop our children through a commitment to our staff teams of monitoring performance, providing training and development opportunities, supporting wellbeing and in recognising quality practice and teaching.

be Ready  We aspire for our children to be ready for their next step in life, through supporting independence, learning valuable life skills and developing confidence in themselves and their abilities.
