I have used it and I like it but I know of others who do not. I use it really as a glorified data base - it has eveyr single stepping stone on it and some others which seem a little strange - I like the way i can print out my planning - it will tell me how much coverage I have got and will draw an automatic bar chart - not that I use this much but I know Ofsted liked it, but then they would - it does help me to focus on the aspects of learning - there are links through tto the FS profile, although I am in early years playschool so wouldn't be able to answer as to whether this bit of it was good or not.

For £90 saves me a whole load of typing and thinking - and looking up so for me I am pleased with it as a tool but not too sure what others think. They used to do it on approval so you can try before you buy - might be worth looking at it this way

Not seen Early Years version but have used the IEP writer by skills factory. It is useful as a resource but we used it alongside other resources.

We had curriculum complete which had a section for Reception but found it really difficult to find the time to work out how to use it successfully. As I was teaching in reception I was also planning against ELGs and using stepping stones as differentiation and it really didnt seem easy to do that.

Not sure how the early years version differs or whether I would have found it more accessible.

There is a review of an alternative curriculun support software within the review section.
