About us: Greek School of Ayia Triada opened its doors for the first time in 1984 but it was not until very later an Early Years group started. In 2011, we have welcomed for the first time our Early Years Group. This group was mainly for children of four years old. We did not have a base at the beginning but gradually we started fundraising and we have managed to create our nursery group classrooms. Since 2011 our Early Years Group has become a big part of the school, and a highly valued one for the love, care and dedication of our staff to children and their families. What some of our parents say....
"Our daughter has been teaching her teacher how to spell her name in Greek and how to count to ten. She is excited about coming to school and I think she started to settle in now. She keeps telling me and her dad how much she loves Greek School" Cara.
"We really like it that this year we keep receiving photos and information of class activities by the teacher. It is nice to know what children are learning at school every Saturday…” Antonios
“It is really nice to see how caring and thoughtful the teachers of the nursery are…” Maria
Dr. S. Tryfonos Headteacher Greek School Ayia Triada Birmingham

Our Approach Greek School of Ayia Triada Early Years Groups is one of our newest departments of our school. Established in 2010, the nursery originally opened in the ground floor of our school in one of our smallest classrooms as we started with only five children. The EYF department of our school aims to provide high quality care and education for children aged 3 years to 6 years in a caring and inclusive environment providing an induction to the Greek language learning. As our philosophy, we strive to encourage children to learn through play and discovery.
We understand the decision to place your child/children in an Early Years setting in the Greek School can be a daunting and emotional time. Here at the Greek School of Ayia Triada Birmingham we make it our priority to ensure your child receives all the love, care and attention that they do at home. We ultimately care for their well-being and happiness as we understand a child will not be able to grow if they do not first feel loved and comfortable in their surroundings. Greek School is no exception to this, even though it is not the main school setting of your child. We believe that we come to complete what your child’s nursery is providing, through enabling your child to discover the mother language, and its family roots.
The nursery is easily accessible from various routes in our area; it is accessible by foot, bus and car, and there is also a big lake and a park available outside to encourage parents to walk with their children or ride to nursery.
Our SEN approach Here at the Greek School of Ayia Triada we aim to be approachable, pupil centred, caring and supportive. We have personal as well as professional experience of the education process, Statements of Special Educational Needs and the problems which can arise. Our staff is able to relate to and empathise with their pupils, as well as our headteacher and Management Board members as most of them are parents and have also experience from their environment of children with additional needs, as well as from their educational background and training.

Our Staff All of our staff are highly qualified in teaching the Greek Language as well as have experience in childcare. All are trained in First Aid, Safeguarding Children in Education Child Protection. They have also SEN training in progress. We are one of the few Greek Schools in the UK which has a very low staff turnover, therefore the bond between the children and the staff is strong. The nursery is owned and run by the Greek School of Ayia Triada Management Board and is an important part of the Wider Greek Cypriot Association of Midlands. Our Staff, and our school has passed through successfully many stages of observation, standardisation and quality inspections. We are also proud that the growing number of students in our school shows exactly the amazing work of our staff

Introduction to the concept of the Early Years Curriculum
Mrs M. Papalouca
Chief Inspector of Cyprus Educational Mission (CEM) in the UK
Η παροικιακή εκπαίδευση είναι πρωταρχικός στόχος των Αποδήμων
Κυπρίων και Ελλαδιτών στο Ηνωμένο Βασίλειο (ΗΒ), που αγωνιούν
και αγωνίζονται να κρατηθούν στις ρίζες τους και τον πολιτισμό των
προγόνων τους.
Το Ελληνικό Παροικιακό Σχολείο (ΕΠΣ) σήμερα όσο ποτέ είναι μια
αναγκαιότητα που όλοι αναγνωρίζουν και επιζητούν και σκοπό έχει να κρατήσει τη νέα γενιά
στους κόλπους του ελληνισμού. Επιδιώκει να διδάξει στα παιδιά και τους νέους μας την
ελληνική γλώσσα, να τους δώσει ευκαιρίες να βιώσουν ήθη και έθιμα μας, να γνωρίσουν τις
αλήθειες της ελληνορθόδοξης χριστιανικής πίστης μας, την ιστορία μας και τον πολιτισμό μας.
Έτσι, θα διατηρήσουν την εθνική, θρησκευτική και πολιτιστική τους ταυτότητα, θα νοιώθουν
περήφανα για την καταγωγή τους και θα αποφύγουν την αφομοίωση από την οποία
κινδυνεύουν στην πολυπολιτισμική χώρα στην οποία ζουν.
Τα τελευταία χρόνια, η αναθεώρηση του Αναλυτικού Προγράμματος για τα ΕΠΣ ήταν μια
αναγκαιότητα, που η Κυπριακή Εκπαιδευτική Αποστολή (ΚΕΑ) έχει θέσει σαν προτεραιότητα
της. Εργάστηκε με συστηματικότητα λαμβάνοντας υπόψη τα σημερινά δεδομένα των ΕΠΣ, το
γεγονός ότι οι μαθητές και μαθήτριες μας είναι κατά το πλείστον 2ης , 3ης ή και 4ης γενιάς
αποδήμων στο ΗΒ, το επίπεδο των ελληνικών με το οποίο ξεκινούν οι μαθητές τη φοίτησή
τους και το επιθυμητό αποτέλεσμα με την ολοκλήρωση της φοίτησης τους στο δημοτικό.
Η προσπάθεια ολοκληρώθηκε με πρόταση που παρεδόθη στο Υπουργείο Παιδείας και
Πολιτισμού (ΥπΠΠ) της Κύπρου για έγκριση, μέρος της οποίας παρουσιάζεται στον παρόν
έγγραφο.
Οι Θεματικές Ενότητες του Νηπιαγωγείου και της Προδημοτικής τάξης αναμένεται να
αποτελέσει βασικό βοήθημα και οδηγό του εκπαιδευτικού στο αντίστοιχο επίπεδο για την
επίτευξη των επιδιωκομένων στόχων.
Είμαι σίγουρη για την πλήρη και επιτυχή αξιοποίησή του.

EYFS Curriculum In the next pages you will be presented with an overview of the curriculum we follow, through
abstracts taken from the Cyprus Educational Mission suggested curriculum document. You

teaching staff is observing and recording progress. As mentioned previously your child will
mostly be taught through playing and exploring and our curriculum is mainly focused on the
following learning areas: (a) communication and language, (b) personal social and emotional
development, (c) literacy, (d) basic number skills relating to language learning, (e)
understanding the world, (f) expressive arts and design.
The following two pages outline the main Learning Objective as well as the learning intentions
and approaches in delivering the curriculum. We have not translated or changed any of the
curriculum’s areas (from the Greek version) as we would like you to receive it in its authentic
form. Should you have difficulty understanding it please feel free to ask your child’s class
teacher for further details.

Γενικές αρχές Για καλύτερα αποτελέσματα είναι απαραίτητο ο εκπαιδευτικός να:
• κάνει συχνές επαναλήψεις
• επιμένει τα παιδιά να χρησιμοποιούν τις λέξεις που διδάσκονται
• να χρησιμοποιεί την αγγλική γλώσσα στην αρχή για επικοινωνία με τα παιδιά και σταδιακά να την περιορίζει όπου είναι απαραίτητο

• να αποδέχεται τα λάθη ως μέρος της μαθησιακής διαδικασίας και να τα διορθώνει απλά επαναλαμβάνοντας τις λέξεις, σωστά

Music and Dance In recent years there has been huge developments in
neuroscience giving rise to large numbers of studies and many claims about the value and effect of music. Much of this research is focussed on the transfer effects of music and the way it might be used to support children’s learning and development; “l earning through music” (Z. Greenhalgh,
2016)
According to Greenhalgh’s (2016) conclusions, the most
convincing evidence relates to; the development of communication,
listening and language skills; personal, social and emotional development, and
executive functioning. What also becomes clear is that high quality musical
training/activity is more valuable and effective in generating the effective
transfer of skills to non-musical areas of development.
The positive evidenced effects of music making in the early years is: cognitive,
emotional and social development, language and communication skills,
interactive with others, confidence and self-belief, parent and parent
attachment, culturally diverse practice, activities informed by involvement of
parents/carers and taking multiagency approach. In our school music and dance
play a significant role in the teaching and learning process of our Early Years and
Foundation groups [Nursery and Reception]. A wide range of songs and dancing
activities are planned alongside our curriculum activities. All singing activities
are carried out by our music teacher and aim at enable
children to: a)learn through music, rhythm and play,
b)children learn classic songs related to national
and religious celebrations, c) to develop an
awareness of different types of music focusing
mainly in children’s singing in Greek. The following
are included in our topics as follows:

My Learning Journey Book Your child’s Learning Journey Book celebrates his or her experiences. Over time it will tell a story
about your child - his or her learning, friends, and the experiences he or she enjoys sharing with
others.
Our Staff watch and notice each child at play because it helps us to understand and support their
individual wellbeing and development. We really get to know the children as unique people with
special skills, interests and ideas. The more we understand about your special child, the better
we can support them in the way that is right for them.
Your child’s teacher and family work together to build this Learning Journey as a record of your
child’s Learning during their time at our Early Years Groups. Although the Learning Journey Books
will be sent home once a term, you may wish to borrow them so you just need to ask the class teacher!
Throughout the year there will be opportunities when you will be invited to look through, and contribute to,
your child's Learning Journal, but we encourage you to contribute and look through on a more informal, regular
basis. We also encourage you to talk with your child about their Learning Journey Book and feel free to add in
family photographs or other things of significance for your child.
At this age, so much happens so quickly and we would love to hear about events, activities or achievements
which can be put into your child’s Learning Journey Book! And although the time your child spends at the Greek
School is only very little compared to the everyday schooling experience, we do hope that the learning journey
of your child in Greek School is as important as every other aspect of their learning. Feel free to write us a note,
have a chat to a member of staff or bring in a photo, drawing or souvenir to share with us. When you tell us
about your child a clearer picture unfolds and together we can plan more effectively to help your child’s learning
and development. When children are ready, they can also choose to put things that are important to them in
their Learning Journey Books- though it is mainly kept here it belongs to you and your child.
The Learning Journey Books will include the following:
Our Early Years Curriculum complies primarily with the provisions of the National Curriculum Offered by the
Cypriot and Greek Ministries of Education, approved in 2015. Additionally we are planning our work around the
areas of development as these described by the Early Years and Foundation Guidelines issued by the British
Department of Education. To be more precise, although our main focus is the Development of Communication
Photographs - These capture moments and sequences of your child’s experiences during attending our Early Years Group. You can add
some of your own from home. Sometimes, we will write down exactly what your child says about the photographs, so we know your
child’s point of view. Sometimes we may add more general photos and explain what they represent, as to add to what they learning of the
day was and your child’s work. This is also an accurate record of language development. Pictures of important people and things from
home will help your child to feel secure when making the link between home and their educational setting. Please feel free to add any
photos to the Learning Journal. You could also write down the names of family members or friends pictured in the photos and we will then
be able to talk with your child about things that are important to them.
Observations - These are quick notes of significant moments we notice in your child’s learning.
Your child’s creations - These could be photos of models, photos of their role-play, marks they have made, or art-making –
with an observation to explain what your child did or said.
Learning stories or detailed observations – On occasions teachers may add some more detailed observations and give
snapshots of learning that your child has initiated themselves. Staff then think about what and how your child is learning, their
development and how best to support them further.

and Language skills with regards to the Greek Language, this curriculum is planned around four main themes:
A Unique Child Positive Relationships Enabling Environments Learning and Development
Every child is a competent
learner from birth who can be
resilient, capable, confident and
self-assured.
Children learn to be strong and
independent from a base of loving
and secure relationships with
parents and/or a key person.
The environment plays a key role
in supporting and extending
children’s development and
learning.
Children develop and learn in
different ways and at different
rates and all areas of Learning and
Development are equally
important and inter-connected.
There are then 7 areas of learning and development. Here at the Greek School of Ayia Triada Birmingham our
focus is language, but at the same time all the areas of Learning are equally valued and included in for planning
and assessment purposes:
3 Prime Areas
Personal, Social and Emotional Development (PSED)
Communication and Language (C&L) Physical Development (PD)
4 Specific Areas
Literacy (L) Mathematics (M) Understanding the World (UtW)
Expressive Arts and Design (EAD)

Reporting of Progress It’s widely recognised that the more involved parents are in their child’s education, the better the
pupil performs at their learning. Over the years, studies and papers have highlighted the relationship
between child’s classroom performance and achievements are significantly influenced by the extent
to which its parents become involved in school life, are supportive towards school and the interest
they take in their child’s education.
Students respond very well to parents participating in their schooling – whether that’s just being aware of their progress and understanding their achievements, or whether it is when parents decide to take a more active role and become involved in the school itself. Either way, greater parental engagement often motivates the child to do well.
But in order to establish and maintain this interest, there needs to be a regular and reliable communication and sharing of information between the school and pupils’ families. Our School hopes to create an effective partnership by providing an open and communicative environment with the wider community, forming a link between the classroom and the home, and the school and the family.
Parents Evenings: Our Early Groups will follow the regular parents’ evenings along with the rest of the school. During the meetings the teachers will talk through their learning plan, targets, events and achievements and they will also share with the parents the work of their children. The following is the timetable for the parents’ evenings for 2017-2018:
End of Year Progress Report: will be given to parents during the Third Term’s parents’
