For this coming academic year, EYFS network group meetings are changing.

Autumn term is always a busy time of the year, but please do join us for our Early Years Networking Briefing. These are designed to support colleagues working within Early Years settings and schools both on a strategic and practical level. In this session we will update on the latest national updates, including DfE, Ofsted and related non-statutory guidance, explore the key messages and implications and bust some of the myths that may have sprung up over summer from these. We will also have a professional dialogue considering how the autumn term has gone so far, with your new cohort of children. We will consider the principles of transition, whether there is a coherent and progressive approach to curriculum planning, linking to the latest research and strategies. This will be a valuable opportunity for peers from the PVI and schools sector, to meet together and to learn from the experiences of others, reflect on successes and plan next steps.

We do hope you will be able to join us at one of these sessions below.

There is no need to book in advance.

Information session will also run independently this year for childminders. These termly virtual evening sessions will provide discussions and strategy sharing around a learning and development area. Again, further information will be available shortly.
