Personal, Social and Emotional Development in the EYFS

Personal, Social and Emotional Development (PSED) is a key area of learning in the Early Years Foundation Stage. It supports children in building strong relationships, developing self-confidence, and understanding their own feelings and those of others. Through play, group activities, and daily routines, children learn to manage emotions, resolve conflicts, and become independent and resilient individuals.

We nurture a safe, caring environment where every child feels valued, respected, and ready to learn.

Below are some pictures of our children enjoying and engaging in PSED activities over the years.
