This session will explore developing and delivering a curriculum which embeds the ethos of challenge, promoting curiosity and effective learning for children in our settings. 

Understanding why we, as practitioners, are doing what we are doing and being able to confidently assess the impact of that learning for children is key to their development and progression.  

The characteristics of effective teaching and learning will be explored to support practitioners in identifying, scaffolding and celebrating opportunities for learning in line with the EYFS. 

The session will also explore supporting children with SEND in settings to ensure all children are reaching their fullest potential in these crucial early years.
