Foundation Stage

Foundation Stage is where your children will start their exciting learning journey. At Star International School Mirdif, the Early Years Foundation Stage is based on four principles:

• A unique child: developing resilient, capable, confident and self-assured individuals

• Positive relationships: supporting the children in becoming independent learners

• Enabling environments: where opportunities and experiences respond to the individual needs of the child by developing a strong partnership between practitioners, parents/carers and the child

• Learning and developing: Your child will be learning skills, acquiring new knowledge and demonstrating their understanding through 7 areas of learning and development. The 3 Prime areas are: Communication and Language, Physical Development and Personal, Social and Emotional development. The 4 specific areas are: Literacy, Maths, Understanding the World and Expressive Arts.
