Click to access the 'Learning and development' webpage on the Early Years Matters website. This webpage takes a look at the prime and specific development types, as outlined in the EYFS. This resource is focused on birth to five years.
It is important to remember that developmental charts are only a guide to the ages and stages of development. They are not perfect for every child. All children are individual and unique; they will progress roughly in the same order but not necessarily all at the same speed as their peers.
