Exploring the Early Years Learning Framework for babies and toddlers

Jun 7 2022

Research shows that the first 3 years of life are of critical importance for brain development in infants. An incredible amount of learning development takes place in that period. It is therefore important that educators plan experiences and provide learning environments that encourage the best outcomes for children under 3 years of age.

This professional development session explores the use of the Early Years Learning Framework document, with particular focus on the Learning Outcomes for babies and toddlers.

This workshop has a strong focus on the National Quality Framework including Quality Areas 1, 5 & 6.
