6.(d) Outcomes for children in the Early Years Foundation Stage
6.4
Children make good progress in relation to their starting points and abilities. They
are well motivated, confident, fully involved and well behaved as they work happily in
groups and on their own. They are eager to contribute and listen to each other’s
views. They are highly articulate and are keen to record their ideas, and they love
books. The children enjoy using the inter-active whiteboard and computers, creating
illustrations for their work, and tackling problems as they acquire skills that are a
valuable foundation for future learning. Relationships at all levels are excellent and
children make friends easily. Nursery children relate exceptionally well to their key
persons. Reception children respect and trust their teachers. The children feel safe,
secure and fit, and understand what danger is. They benefit from physical activity,
choose healthy food to eat and are developing good personal habits.
What the Early Years Foundation Stage should do to improve is given at the
beginning of the report in section 2.
