Quick Navigation

Nov 3 2023

Please see the DfE update below

Dear LA colleague,

The Department for Education has published a new vodcast for local authorities on the updated Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS) Profile 2024 handbook.

The updated handbook was published on 9th October 2023, and is designed to support teachers and early years practitioners to complete the EYFS Profile at the end of this academic year. The vodcast includes:

  • An overview of the EYFS Profile and findings from the evaluation of the 2021 EYFS reforms.
  • Key changes made to the updated EYFS Profile 2024 handbook and updated EYFS exemptions guidance.
  • Links to resources and information that can provide further support for completing the EYFS Profile.

While the vodcast is primarily for local authorities, we encourage you to share the information in this vodcast with teachers, practitioners and school and setting leaders who are involved in the EYFS Profile.

Kind regards,

The Early Years Entitlements Team
