We provide both responsive and intentional learning for children in our dayto-day practice. By this we mean that we constantly respond to the needs of
young children alongside planning and implementing intentional experiences
to help them develop their skills, knowledge and understanding of the world
around them. Responsive and intentional planning approaches start with
our observations and interpretations of the baby or young child’s actions,
emotions and words. This tells us what the child needs for us to provide in
their learning environment. A child-centred approach to planning learning will
help the child connect each new discovery to what they already know.
