I have noticed a lot of focus on 'making it better for boys' and ensuring boys do not 'fall behind' in Ofsted inspections. I have collated the following links to support my own cpd and thought I'd share -

http://www.foundationyears.org.uk/wp-content/uploads/2011/11/Gateway-to-Writing-Boys-and-writing.pdf - encourage boys writing

https://www.islington.gov.uk//~/media/sharepoint-lists/public-records/educationandskills/information/leaflets/20112012/20120303engagingboysleaflet - good practice activity ideas.
Why won't boys engage in the early years ? - Early Years Careers (http://www.earlyyearscareers.com/eyc/latest-news/why-wont-boys-engage-in-the-early-years/) - finding ways to engage boys
I have focused on boys in my e-book 53 'Working with Boys' - Knutsford Childminding | Sarah Neville - Registered Childminder (http://www.knutsfordchildminding.co.uk).
