A number of new resources were recently unveiled at the 4Children Early Childhood Matters conference; these included the What to Expect, When? guide for parents. The Education Endowment Foundation published their Early Years Pupil Premium toolkit for providers to gain the maximum benefits from the EYPP. The Institute of Education launched the Sustained Shared Thinking and Emotional Well-being (SSTEW) scale, which is being used in the SEED study (Study of Early Education and Development); also made public at the Conference were 'Early Years Pupil Premium: call for evidence' case studies which identify and share good practice in meeting the needs of disadvantaged children and improving outcomes.
A paper has been produced on what British Values mean in the early years with examples given in practice. Lastly, the Department of Health has commissioned a document supporting early years practitioners and health visitors in delivering the two year old integrated review which will be rolling out from September of this year.
