Government reveals next steps in developing EYFS

Ahead of today's publication of the Government's response to the consultation on the Early Years Foundation Stage, Nursery World talked exclusively to children's minister Beverley Hughes and national director of the Foundation Stage Ruth Pimentel. NW: So you're working on some new related materials to the EYFS. When will they come out?

NW: So you're working on some new related materials to the EYFS. When will they come out?

BH: We've got people working on that now, representing the document that was consulted on, thinking about different formats. I think we won't be ready on those for some time because there's quite a bit of development...

but we'll want to get them out in time for local authorities to think about training materials.

NW: So, you're going to expect local authorities to come up with training next spring?

BH: Yes.

NW: How will you know they are going to be able to provide high quality training?
