EYFS Outcomes

The EYFS profile is a statutory assessment of children’s development at the end of the academic year in which children turn 5. 

Students in EYFS are assessed against 7 areas of learning. Personal, Social and Emotional Development (PSED); Communication and Language (C+L); Physical Development (PD); Literacy (L); Mathematics (M); Understanding the World (UTW); Expressive Arts and Design (EAD). For further details and information regarding the Early Years Profile 2024, please click here for the DfE handbook.

Children in Early Years at Simon Balle All-through school attain highly. The proportion of children who achieve a ‘good level of development’ (which means reaching expected levels in the first five areas of learning shown below) has been consistently in line or above the national average. 

Our Early Years curriculum at Simon Balle remains broad and ambitious, preparing children well to achieve the Early Learning Goals in each area, but, more than this, also providing them with a strong foundation in all subject areas to ensure progression into Year 1 and beyond. Our curriculum maps  are therefore plotted from Reception – Year 13 in all subject areas.
