Hi, does anyone have a PDF copy of the Scottish Development statements they could send me, please? I'm not sure if they differ much from the English ones, but I'd really like to see them. My granddaughter is starting nursery next week and I'd like to look at their assessment criteria. Many thanks in advance.
