Description

See: Development Matters in the Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS) - pdf (UK England and Wales - 2012) - on foundationyears.org.uk The statements about child development reproduced here on Commtap are used under the Open Government Licence and are taken from this document. As stated in this document Children develop at their own rates, and in their own ways. The development statements and their order should not be taken as necessary steps for individual children. They should not be used as checklists. The age/stage bands overlap because these are not fixed age boundaries but suggest a typical range of development.
