Hi to anyone picking up on this thread. I am at the very early stages of an action research project working within the Five Bridges of Transitions framework. My interest is particularly with the Curriculum Bridge in respect of the transition of young children from pre-school / nursery settings into mainstream school settings (usually reception classes so still within the remit of the EYFS).

Hello out there! Help needed! Im in the second year of the foudation degree and our next essay is the dreaded research one. We have to conduct a small research project around inclusion and diversity (5000 words). My dd is undergoing observations for aspergers and i would like to use the knowledge i have gained to inspire the project. However, my setting is a homebased setting so is difficult to encompass this, so wanted to base it around the senco's knowledge at dd's school. However imnot sure on the ethics of this, or how i'll get the school on board. Any help? Or suggestions?? Thanks in advance x

Hi there I am a final year student, 5 weeks from qualifying as a Primary teacher, specialising in Early Years! I am applying for a job in North Wales and need to know about the Foundation Stage in Wales. I cant seem to find much information online - does any one know where I can find the Foundation Stage Curriculum guidance? Does it differ much to the EYFS? Many thanks for your help in advance! :-)

Hi I'm trying to put together a resource about all the legislations that relate to the childcare sector (nurseries, schools, home-based childcare, etc) and to be honest I'm quite daunted by the task I've set myself!

Happy Christmas Eve everyone. I'm loving this piece of research, it is a great read which tells us just what children think and how they view play through the EYFS. Very positive reading to bring a smile to all Early Years settings (except for the bit with the dark clouds, I hate that idea of using the weather for punishment). You can find it here http://publications.education.gov.uk/eOrde...d/DFE-RR071.pdf BMG
