The EYFS Prime Areas of Learning are foundational. They play a significant role in encouraging children’s curiosity and enthusiasm for learning. They're a driving force behind helping children as they learn to form relationships, moderate emotions and thrive in their day-to-day life.

Prime Areas of Learning in the EYFS make up a crucial part of early development. These are then followed by more specified areas of development that are more structured in their approach. Helping children to master the 'basics' by meeting the aims in the EYFS Prime Areas of Learning encourages long term skills. Supporting them in their development during EYFS is a way to help them grasp the underpinning skills they need to exceed in specific learning areas in the future.
