River Wood Nursery follows the UK EYFS framework, which is one of the most established early years curricula used internationally and widely adopted by nurseries across Abu Dhabi. Nurseries following EYFS typically structure learning around seven areas of development, covering communication and language, physical development, personal, social and emotional development, literacy, mathematics, understanding the world, and expressive arts and design. In practice, EYFS settings generally favour play-based and child-led activities over formal, desk-based instruction, particularly for younger children. This approach is designed to build foundational skills at a pace suited to each child, while gradually introducing more structured pre-literacy and pre-numeracy activities as children move towards school age. Parents interested in the specifics of how EYFS is implemented at River Wood Nursery, including daily activities and any additional enrichment, are advised to contact the nursery directly, as these details can vary between EYFS settings.
Age range: Nursery stages N0 to N4 (approximately early infancy to around 4 years), plus an SN group
River Wood Nursery accepts children across the N0, N1, N2, N3 and N4 stages, alongside an SN group, reflecting a progression of classes typically found in EYFS nurseries as children grow from infancy through to the years immediately before school. Each stage generally corresponds to a different age band and developmental focus, with earlier stages centred on care, routine and sensory exploration, and later stages introducing more structured early learning activities. Parents should confirm with the nursery exactly which ages and intake dates apply to each named group.
