Our EYFS Intent

Our intent is to create spaces for all pupils to play, explore and learn through the provision of inclusive, memorable and enriching learning experiences. Pastoral care is paramount in our learning environment. We build and nurture positive relationships to enable children to become independent, curious and empathetic in their approach to learning. Our aim is for our youngest Longfield pupils to begin their educational journey with the resounding belief that they will strive to ‘be the best that they can be’.
