The Early Years Developmental Journal replaces an earlier version of the resource and has been updated in line with the revised EYFS.
Parents will also be able to add the journal to the Early Support app, which will be available in the next few weeks, which will enable parents to add photos and video footage of their child’s development.
Families will keep the journal but will also be able to share it with nurseries, childminders, health workers and others at appointments and assessments to help them support their child’s development and identify areas where extra support may be needed.
Although the main purpose of the resource is to support families, it can also be used as part of the two-year-old progress check and to help to monitor children’s health.
