Early Years: What to Expect, When?

On 23 September, the Department for Education (DfE) published What to expect in the Early Years Foundation Stage: a guide for parents to reflect the EYFS reforms becoming statutory on 1 September.

The purpose of this booklet is to help you as a parent/carer find out more about how your child is learning and developing during their first five years, in relation to the EYFS. Children develop more rapidly during the first five years of their lives than at any other time. This booklet has been written to help you as a parent know what to expect during these vitally important years by focusing on the seven areas of learning and development which are covered in the EYFS.
