SERIES 6: EARLY YEARS CURRICULUM 
In this set of three 30-minute videos, Jan Dubiel, leading early years specialist and member of the advisory group for the revised EYFS, takes us through different aspects of the curriculum – planning, progression and assessment.

Jan looks at what we mean by an early years curriculum and how we construct one; how progression can be ensured by its coverage and depth; and at assessment – how do we know that children know what they know?
