Celebrating Play through ICT
This booklet attached is an outline of the main findings of the
Bath and North East Somerset Project "Celebrating
Play through ICT". The Project was funded by the Primary
National Strategy as part of national research into using ICT in
the Foundation Stage. We hope that this booklet will
encourage you to explore new ways of recording and enhancing
children’s learning.

Early Years Transition Toolkit
Transition into school can be a challenge for children, parents
and professionals and it is essential that we make the process easy
and safe for children and their parents and carers.
The
Transition Toolkit was compiled from good practice
gathered at the Transition Conference in February 2008 from
practitioners in early years, health, social care and children's
centres. It provides examples of how to support children and
families with different levels of need.
Equal Opportunities Guidance Folder
All early years settings have a statutory duty to ensure
that: "All children, irrespective of ethnicity, culture of
religion, home language, family background, learning difficulties
or disabilities, gender or ability should have the opportunity to
experience a challenging and enjoyable programme of learning and
development".
This
Guidance Folder will support childcare providers with their
inclusive practice and will help to ensure equality of
opportunities for every child in their care.
