The Department for Education (DfE) is planning to make changes to the Early Learning Goals (ELGs) / Early Years Foundation Stage Profile (EYFSP), and is piloting the reforms in 25 schools, selected to be a representative mix of all schools, prior to a full national public consultation. The autumn term Leaders and Managers Early Years Network meetings on Friday 9th November am/pm will give EY leads the opportunity to discuss the draft changes. The draft Early Learning Goals should not limit the wide variety of rich experiences that are crucial to child development. They are for end of year summative best–fit assessment judgements. The revised ELGs will come into effect in 2020 – 2021.
Updated Early Education and Childcare: LA Statutory Guidance and the Operational Guidance. The DfE has updated both documents which will take effect from 1st September 2018 – link below
