Best practice sharing

As part of this support, we would like to share some examples of best practice at a headteacher / SLT and teacher level. Below are examples of what each role might like to share:

- Headteachers: how you support the reception teacher to carry out the assessment effectively, such as the steps taken to make sure senior leaders have a good understanding of the EYFSP assessment, any internal moderation and / or quality assurance of the data and how you help teachers to use the data to support transitions.

- Teachers: the process you follow to make EYFSP judgements, including how you have collaborated with internal colleagues and / or other schools and how you use the EYFSP data to support transitions. You may also like to share examples of children you have assessed (e.g. how you assessed a child with SEND, made a judgement against a particular ELG or applied the best-fit model).

If you would like your best practice to be considered for this piece of work, please complete the template attached and email this to Exemptions.EYFS@education.gov.uk by Monday 13 October.

Peer-to-peer sessions

To ensure the peer-to-peer sessions are relevant and effective, we are seeking input from Reception teachers. If you would be willing to share your views in a short conversation, please contact elaine.cernuto@education.gov.uk.
