What the setting needs to do to improve further To meet the requirements of the Early Years Foundation Stage the provider must: ensure that children have sufficient opportunities to learn and reach a good standard in the English language; for example, by delivering some activities in English and testing children's understanding of what a word means.. To further improve the quality of the early years provision the provider should: improve the range of resources provided outside to further enhance children's interest and learning across all areas of learning improve the range of resources available each day for children to choose from that promote their awareness of mathematical concepts.
