Our Premium Package
The Basic Statutory Framework is not enough
The Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS) in England sets the basic statutory framework for early childhood education (from birth to 5 years old) and is what government-funded childcare covers.
You can read the latest framework in the link below.
This alone is not enough to fully prepare children for school or life beyond.
That’s why First Friends goes beyond the minimum EYFS requirements.
We provide a Premium Package - which is what makes us the nursery of choice!
At First Friends, we strive to give children opportunities and experiences that will promote a love for learning that will last a lifetime.
Our Premium Package is designed to provide every child in our care with opportunities, experiences and an inspiring foundation for learning - where no child is left behind.
It focuses on three key areas:
1. Enhanced Curriculum
2. Everyday Essentials
3. Fuel for Learning
Together, these elements create a premium journey, ensuring children are fully prepared for school and beyond.
