The early years foundation stage (EYFS) sets standards for the learning, development and care of your child from birth to age 5 years. All schools and Ofsted-registered early years providers must follow the EYFS, including childminders, pre-schools, nurseries and school reception classes.

 

The EYFS framework involves an integrated approach to early learning and care. It gives all professionals a set of common principles and commitments to deliver high quality early education and childcare to all children.
