The EYFS: A Practical Guide for Students and Professionals by Vicky Hutchin

The EYFS: A Practical Guide for Students and Professionals by Vicky Hutchin

Endorsed by CACHE, this is the ideal book for you if you are an early years professional, a Level 2 or Level 3 child care learner, are working in a pre-school or are working as a child minder. This book will de-mystify the revised 2012 Early Years Foundation Stage, and show how you can deliver the new EYFS using the best and most effective standards of professional practice. Each chapter explains a key theme of the EYFS and follows the same model to ensure ease of reading: 'Understanding this theme', 'Looking at children', 'What the experts say' and 'Effective practice'. The most important theory and research relating to each aspect of the EYFS is clearly and simply explained, and suggestions as to how this can influence effective practice are included. Links between child development and the EYFS are demonstrated using carefully analysed observations of children at different ages, highlighting not only common themes but also the uniqueness in every child's learning and development. Case studies in every chapter provide practical examples of best practice and activities help you reflect on and develop your own practice.

Vicky Hutchin has many years of experience as an early years practitioner, teacher, writer, Local Authority consultant and was Senior Years Foundation Stage Regional Adviser in the National Strategies early years team, and was involved in the consultation and the support materials for the original EYFS.
