It offers clear information on what to look for in terms of the childs developing moving and handling skills and how to plan for next steps. Each section is colour coded and links the Early Years Outcomes to the planning cycle and Characteristics of Effective Learning. It contains a wide range of additional activities and an assessment grid to support practitioners current tracking systems and help demonstrate progress over a specific period of time.
