@RachelOrr continuity of leadership if needed. This is not about financial gain but about sensible forward planning, allowing our small school federation to operate effectively without academisation.

Just read an Ofsted report stating that EYFS is successful in preparing the children for ‘the demands of KS1.’ IMO this is not the purpose of EY - & why do we have to be placing ’demands’ on such young children? Surely there should be joy in EY that then goes into KS1?

Kirsty Godfrey clarifies that a language-rich environment isn’t lots of labels around the room. It means an environment where all children regularly hear and use rich language. Books, songs and nursery rhymes are an important part of this. We need to value storytime.
