The Early Years Sector has been hard hit over the past 18 months – from having to deal with a range of issues such as financial pressures, falls in attendance, and staffing shortages, to name a few. But while we’re all now getting our ducks in a row ready for the new September term, with that comes the added pressure of preparing for the reforms to the Early Years Foundation Stage.
The main focus for childcare leaders is to know and understand what the statutory requirements and expectations around assessment are, and to ensure practitioners and childminders are also confident about the changes and their approach.
To help you with this, we’ve launched an EYFS Reforms Hub, complete with guidance, practical support and resources – including an EYFS quiz to give you and your team a chance to recap and read up on the changes.
