Early Adopters EYFS Profile Moderation Training 2021

The Early Learning Goals focus for Early Adopter Schools Profile training 2020/21 are Communication and Language and Literacy. These sessions are specifically for schools who are early adopters of the revised EYFS statutory Framework 2020/21 and will be delivered by experienced accredited EYFS profile moderators.

The course will reassure practitioners that their judgements are accurate, valid and consistent with the new revised national standards (ELGs) as set out in the EYFS Early Adopter Framework by carrying out ‘agreement trailing’ and moderation activities with other schools. https://www.servicesforeducation.co.uk/our-offer/early-adopters-profile-31march-am/

EYFS Reforms Early Adopters – Let’s Talk About the EYFS Reforms in Practice!

This online course is specifically for schools that are adopting the reformed EYFS framework during the academic year of 2020/21 before the statutory roll out in September 2021. It will enable schools that are early adopters to know and understand the key reforms in greater detail. Schools will be able to reflect on their practice and provision and discuss with other schools how the reforms have influenced and changed their pedagogy and curriculum development in the EYFS.
