 Intent Statement

At St Joseph’s Catholic Primary School, we adhere to the Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS) statutory framework and incorporate the principles of Development Matters. These guidelines ensure our youngest learners receive a high-quality, play-based education that fosters their development and prepares them for future learning.

Through a balanced approach, we nurture each child’s heart, mind, and spirit, staying true to our mission.
