This document aims to highlight opportunities to elements of design and technology (D&T) learning into the Early Years Foundation Stage. Advice around effective D&T practice has been produced to align with the non-statutory guidance from ‘Development Matters’ (2000) and the statutory framework for the early years foundation stage (2021) produced by the DfE. There are opportunities for D&T engagement across all seven areas of learning and the effective D&T practice should not be seen as either an exhaustive list or statutory requirements.
The areas of learning covered are:
  • communication and language
  • physical development
  • personal, social and emotional development
  • literacy
  • mathematics
  • understanding the world
  • expressive arts and design
This resource includes charts to help identify opportunities for D&T for children in EYFS. These suggest what children might learn, what adults could do and include notes on effective practice. Examples have been added or amended to indicate relevance to D&T.

Prices include VAT at the appropriate rate where applicable, postage and packing for UK only. For overseas postage please call us.
