Default Building Curved steps

I want to build some curved steps in the garden on a slope which is
currently just a flower bed. What are the best ways to construct this. The
steps will be quite wide (3-4m wide) with a tread of approx 1m and there
will be approx 3-4 steps.
I plan to cut paving stone to use on the surface, I just need to know the
correct way to construct the base.
I was thinking of using plywood formers (to create the curve) and concrete
fill but is this overkill?
