Cambridge Early Years Campus
Welcome to Our Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS)
At Rophine Field International School, we believe that the foundation of a successful educational journey begins with a strong start in the Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS). Our EYFS program is designed to nurture and support the development of our youngest learners, providing them with a solid foundation for their future learning adventures.
What is EYFS?
The EYFS is a crucial stage in a child’s education, spanning the ages of 2.5-6 years. It is a time of wonder, exploration, and growth, during which children develop their personalities, interests, and abilities.
At Rophine Field International School, we embrace the EYFS framework and are committed to providing a well-rounded educational experience for your child. Our EYFS curriculum is based on the principles of the EYFS framework, which focuses on the following key areas of learning.
Prime Areas:
- Personal, Social, and Emotional Development
- Communication and Language
- Physical Development
Specific Areas:
- Literacy
- Mathematics
- Understanding the World
- Expressive Arts and Design
Our Approach
Rophine Field International believes in a child-centered approach. We understand that each child is unique, and thus tailor our teaching to meet their individual needs and interests. We aim to create a nurturing, inclusive, and stimulating environment where children can thrive and develop a lifelong love for learning.
Parental Involvement
We believe a strong partnership between parents, teachers, and children is essential for a child’s development. We encourage parents to actively participate in their child’s journey through regular communication, parent-teacher meetings, and special events.
A Journey of Growth
The EYFS at Rophine Field International School is not just the beginning of your child’s educational journey but the foundation upon which they will build their future. We are dedicated to nurturing confident, curious, and creative individuals who are well-prepared for the following stages of their education.
At Rophine International School, we are committed to providing a safe, nurturing, and engaging EYFS experience, setting the stage for a lifetime of learning. We look forward to being a part of your child’s educational journey.

KS1- Key Stage 1
In Key Stage One the children not only develop their Literacy and Numeracy skills but also have a broad curriculum that includes Art, Geography, History, Science, Music, Kenyan Culture, and Physical Education. Physical development is important at this age and our children take part in a variety of team games.
Children learn in a variety of ways and in Key Stage One, we ensure that lessons are in line with contemporary thinking of how children learn. This learning is celebrated in many different ways in their bright and colorful classrooms through displays and samples of work.
Teachers plan and collaborate to make natural and interesting links for the students. This includes organizing trips to local museums and places of interest connected to their learning.
Reading homework is encouraged when the teachers deem that a child is ready and then daily practice is encouraged at home. In Year 2 the children additionally receive a small amount of Literacy and Numeracy homework.
As part of our curriculum, children in KS1 (Year 1 & 2) take part in our World Languages curriculum of Swahili and French.
