Analysing the Impact of the School Curriculum on Children's Development and Learning
Year: 2025
Type: article
Abstract: This study examines how school curricula shape child development, emphasising the roles of structured learning and outdoor play. The research seeks to understand how structured instruction in essential subjects like literacy, mathematics, and science fosters cognitive, social, and emotional development (Neaum, 2019). It also looks into the importance of outdoor play for enhancing children’s physical and mental health (Moyles, Payler, & Georgeson, 2017). The research will focus on key research questions, such as the effects of structured learning on developmental advancement, the importance of outdoor play, and the differences in development outcomes between the EYFS and Montessori frameworks. By assessing the combined influence of these educational strategies, the research emphasises the significance of a balanced curriculum that includes structured learning and outdoor play to support comprehensive development (GOV.UK, 2024). This study illustrates how a carefully crafted curriculum facilitates developmental milestones and supports children’s growth and educational success.
