High expectations

Standard 18, 'Promote children's rights, equality, inclusion and anti-discriminatory practice in all aspects of their practice', sits within the section 'Effective Practice'. This section contains 13 standards, which outline how EYPs must demonstrate, through their practice and by leading and supporting others, that they have high expectations of all children.

This can be demonstrated by providing balanced and flexible routines that help children develop and learn, and by creating a safe environment to promote children's health, safety and physical, mental and emotional well-being.
