Nursery World - Your Essential Guide to the EYFS PACK - Part 4

The CD-ROM for the EYFS is an active tool that identifies what the new guidance contains and how childcare practitioners can put it successfully into practice. It features a series of short video clips of children playing and adults interacting with them, which highlights how the EYFS can be interpreted effectively and, most importantly, how practitioners can work positively to improve outcomes for children's learning.

The Children's Act 2006 describes how the new regulatory framework for childcare providers, the Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS), should be implemented in order to improve outcomes for children's learning and development.

This newly published guidance for birth to five years old explains what childcare providers are expected to do and gives advice about how they should do it. It incorporates three previous guidance documents: the National Standards for Daycare, the Birth to Three Matters framework and the Curriculum Guidance for the Foundation Stage.

Overall, the new document comprises four sections:

- the statutory framework

- principles into practice cards

- practice guidance for the EYFS
