Details
This guidance is for early years practitioners working with children aged between 2 and 3, including:
- registered childminders
- nursery schools and nursery classes
- other early years settings
It will help early years practitioners to:
- review a child’s development and progress in the 3 prime areas of learning and development in the EYFS framework
- identify any areas of concern or additional development needs
- work with parents and other professionals to put in place appropriate support and intervention
The guidance informs, supports and offers suggestions. It does not replace the professional judgement of practitioners.
It should be read alongside Development Matters which sets out how children develop and learn.
What to expect in the early years foundation stage: a guide for parents can support practitioners to help parents find out more about their child’s learning and development in the EYFS.
