As you are aware the statutory duty for local authorities to moderate the EYFS has been removed. We will however continue to offer training and support for the EYFS and EYFS profile completion. This comprises of the following:

  • Twice yearly ‘LA EYFS school update’ sessions
  • Best practice in the reception year – 2 hour sessions
  • EYFS profile training for teachers new to the EYFS
  • Agreement trialling for all EYFS teachers to support final EYFSP judgements

Our training opportunities will be available through the Head Teacher Briefing and on LTS.
