 We will be advertising our universal roll out of training for the revised EYFS Framework at the start of the summer term.
There will be an opportunity to access pre-recorded videos and virtual live sessions from the Early Years and Childcare Team, which will unpick the changes to the EYFS and also cover what remains unchanged.
If you are keen to find out more over Easter, we recommend you become familiar with the revised framework, which it was announced today, has been finalised and published (see the article below from Foundation Years) and take a look at the non-statutory guidance in the new Development Matters or watch a vodcast.
We wish you a very happy Easter break and look forward to supporting you during the summer term.
 New EYFS framework published
Today, the Department for Education (DfE) have confirmed that the reforms to the Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS) will be rolled out nationally from September 2021.
The new EYFS statutory framework has been published and legislation laid in Parliament. This is the revised and final EYFS framework that all registered nurseries, childminders, schools and pre-schools in England will follow from 1 September 2021. Early years settings, other than registered EYFS reforms early adopters (who must continue to follow the early adopter framework) must continue to follow the current EYFS framework until 1 September 2021, however the revised framework is being made available for all settings now to help them prepare for the changes.
There are also a number of small amendments to section 3 safety and welfare to make existing requirements clearer and to provide updates. A summary of these amendments and why they have been made can be found here. Foundation Years will be publishing two new vodcasts to support with understanding of the revised EYFS later today.
