The ‘Teach to Reach’ programme, introduced in 2016, recognises the importance of the EYFS (Early Years Foundation Stage) establishing and judging minimum standards in the sector, but in addition celebrates the greater emphasis now being placed on wellbeing and the importance of communication and language skills for the very young.
