About This Webinar
Some small changes and omissions within the revised EYFS raise important questions about the expectations of the adult role in supporting learning: Helen Moylett outlines the ongoing importance of:

- The principles relating to Positive Relationships and Enabling Environments in supporting each unique child’s learning and development
- The cycle of observation, assessment and planning play, and providing a balance of child-initiated and adult-led learning
- Supporting children’s innate dispositions (‘characteristics’) to learn
