Standard 37 'Develop and use skills in literacy, numeracy and information and communication technology to support their work with children and wider professional activities'
Standard 37 sits within 'Personal and Professional Development' of the Guidance to the standards. This section contains three standards outlining how EYPs must demonstrate, through their practice, that a secure knowledge and understanding of each of the three standards underpins their own leadership and practice.
