Curriculum

It is our intent to provide a curriculum that promotes the YMCA Cheltenham Values, is interesting, engaging, ambitious and inclusive. We want our children to be inquisitive, curious, independent learners with a lifelong love of learning. Our curriculum is built upon the Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS), incorporating all 7 areas of learning.

“Children enter happily and greet their friends eagerly. They develop strong relationships with staff. Children receive extensive praise and encouragement. Staff celebrate children’s progress and successfully meet children’s individual learning needs. They plan experiences and activities that allow children to learn new skills and that link to children’s interests.” – OFSTED Inspector
