An Excel spreadsheet set up to record ages and stages of development within the EYFS. Mainly designed for Nursery children, although can also be used initially to track progress of Reception children also. Quick easy to see children on track, working above and below (1 or 2+ development bands) for staff CPD as well as focus children. Please also see my Tracker moderation to split ages and stages into beginning, Developing and Secure - useful for tracking progress across terms and the year, especially for Reception F2.

Parinirvana Day or Nirvana Day is the annual Buddhist festival that remembers the death of the Buddha when he reached Nirvana (enlightenment).

I was given this by our Early Years Support Team training on ICT as an activity. I have used with my team to focus in on levels of ICT development. From birth to 60+months. To look at the stages of ICT development and match to the appropriate age. Good for identifying whether a child is on track or not.
