Reviews

“Really useful, particularly as we are due a visit from Ofsted. We have added early years to each subject's progression document and this information will help colleagues.”

“Thanks so much for this. It is exactly what I have been looking for to present in a staff meeting, as we are currently looking at subject leaders roles and their understanding of EYFS. It was very easy to follow.”

“Brilliant! It's so useful to have a way of explaining how the different subjects begin in early years and what it looks like on a daily basis.”

“Very useful thank you. I'm currently thinking of a change into early years after having taught across school for 13 years. This has been wonderful.”
