EYFS - Physical Development

[angeldelight]

The statutory early learning goals (detailed below) establish expectations for most children to reach by the end of the EYFS. They provide the basis for planning throughout the EYFS, so laying secure foundations from birth for future learning. .

Educational programme

The physical development of babies and young children must be encouraged through the provision of opportunities for them to be active and interactive and to improve their skills of coordination, control, manipulation and movement. They must be supported in using all of their senses to learn about the world around them and to make connections between new information and what they already know. They must be supported in developing an understanding of the importance of physical activity and making healthy choices in relation to food.

Early learning goals

By the end of the EYFS, children should:

Move with confidence, imagination and in safety.

Move with control and coordination.

Travel around, under, over and through balancing and climbing equipment.

Show awareness of space, of themselves and of others.

Recognise the importance of keeping healthy, and those things which contribute to this.

Recognise the changes that happen to their bodies when they are active.

Use a range of small and large equipment.

Handle tools, objects, construction and malleable materials safely and with increasing control.
