The Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS) sets standards for the learning, development and care of children from birth to 5 years old. All schools and Ofsted-registered early years providers must follow the framework, including childminders, preschools, nurseries and school reception classes.
This handbook presents the latest Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS), effective from January 2024, as a handy reference copy for early years practitioners whether in training or practice.
