EEF launches updated Early Years Toolkit
The EEF has launched an updated version of the toolkit summarising the best available evidence on key areas for learning and development within the Early Years. Alongside the Early Years Evidence Store which features approaches to support Communication and Language and Personal Social and Emotional Development, the guides provide an evidence-based resource from which to review your settings current ways of working.
The guide highlights the role of the Key Person and how this can support all young people to achieve in Early Years. Watch this space as nasen has a pilot scheme looking at support for the Key Person within your setting currently underway. Results to be published soon.
