The EYFS practice guidance booklet offers detailed explanations of how to use the different elements of the whole EYFS document and explains the synergy between the principles and the support required for children's learning in the six specific areas.
Following the example of the introduction to Curriculum Guidance for the Foundation Stage, the new practice guidance for EYFS emphasises the role of effective practitioners in creating challenging and stimulating environments and the importance of adult interaction to improve outcomes for children's learning.
The practice guidance should be seen as essential support for practitioners as it will remind them about children's stages of development from birth to five years, and will explain how these are linked to the acquisition of knowledge and skills in each area of learning.
