This open setting will showcase how provocations are thoughtfully used within our Reggio Emilia-inspired environment to support children's learning and development through our bespoke curriculum in a mixed-age provision. Visitors will explore how carefully designed invitations to learn encourage curiosity, independence, critical thinking and creativity, while supporting the EYFS areas of learning and development. Our environment is viewed as the "third teacher", providing rich opportunities for children to investigate, problem-solve, communicate and build positive relationships through meaningful play and exploration.

During the session, you will have the opportunity to:

  • Tour the setting and explore our enabling environment and provision.
  • Learn how our Reggio Emilia-inspired approach supports children's learning, development and wellbeing across the EYFS curriculum.
  • Speak with staff about how the environment is used as the "third teacher" to foster curiosity, engagement and sustained shared thinking.
  • Find out more about our bespoke curriculum and how provocations are carefully planned, implemented and developed in response to children's interests and learning needs.
  • Explore how our mixed-age provision promotes collaboration, communication, confidence and peer learning.
  • Network with other Early Years professionals and share ideas, experiences and effective practice.
