The coronavirus pandemic has highlighted the resilience, creativity and ingenuity of some children, as well as the vulnerability of others and the persistent gap in children’s levels of attainment.
Now with the revised EYFS and guidance being rolled out, the challenge for early years practitioners is to revisit what really matters when supporting young children’s play and to build a learning environment that enables every child to thrive.
Keynote speaker at the masterclass on Friday 5 February from 9.45-11.45am – ‘Future play and learning: helping every child to achieve under the revised EYFS and guidance’ – is Dr Julian Grenier, head teacher of Sheringham Nursery School and Children’s Centre and lead on the revised Development Matters guidance.
Joining him will be Sarah Tillotson, of the Education Endowment Foundation, to speak about solutions to the attainment gap, and Michael Pettavel and Dr Alison Stewart of Brougham Street Nursery School, Skipton, North Yorkshire, to give advice on meeting children’s personal, social and emotional needs, particularly post-lockdown.
