This is the website to support you as a professional working with children and families in the foundation years.

It is designed to help equip you with the information and resources you need in your daily practice – to deliver the very best early education and care to children and families during this very important phase.

The website will evolve over the coming months as you add to it by sharing care studies and examples of what works well, and participating in discussion groups; as well as through resources that are co-produced being added to the site. Please do let us know if there is anything this website and its linked resources do not answer for you, and we will be happy to help find the answers you need.

 

If you have a query or an issue to share, post it via foundations@4Children.org.uk to get discussions underway.

    As a Children's Centre Teacher working within Lincolnshire I am sure I will find this new website very useful in my work.

    Would I be able to obtain a copy of the Reformed EYFS documents pls. I would pay for the publication if possible, I can download but prefer actual documents. Thank you

      Hi Serap, unfortunately you cannot buy any copies of the EYFS from us, though I understand some organisations such as NDNA are printing them for a small fee. You may wish to visit their website.

      Tried to send a copy of a progress check for 0-36 months from Cumbria, but it didn't work. It contains the Prime Areas of Learning together with the Characteristics of Learning. It has the age ranges to be circled and a place for the parents to comment. Finally it is signed and dated. We do this progress check with the parents and then place it in the child's Learning Journey. We will be doing progress checks every 12 weeks. That's what we have been advised to do. The 36 months + has all 7 areas.
