EARLY YEARS LEARNING FRAMEWORK

Outcomes:

OUTCOME 1: Children have a strong OUTCOME 2: Children are connected with OUTCOME 3: Children have a strong OUTCOME 4: Children are confident and involved OUTCOME 5: Children are effective

sense of identity and contribute to their world sense of well being learners communicators

Children feel safe, secure, and supported Children develop a sense of belonging to groups Children become strong in their social and Children develop dispositions for learning such as curiosity, Children interact verbally and non-verbally with

and communities and an understanding of the emotional wellbeing cooperation, confidence, creativity, commitment, others for a range of purposes

reciprocal rights and responsibilities necessary for enthusiasm, persistence, imagination and reflexivity

active community participation

Children develop their emerging autonomy, Children respond to diversity with respect Children take increasing responsibility for Children develop a range of skills and processes such as Children engage with a range of texts and gain

inter-dependence, resilience and sense of their own health and physical wellbeing problem solving, enquiry, experimentation, hypothesising, meaning from these texts

agency researching and investigating

Children develop knowledgeable and confident Children become aware of fairness Children transfer and adapt what they have learned from Children express ideas and make meaning using a

self identities one context to another range of media

Children learn to interact in relation to Children become socially responsible and show Children resource their own learning through connecting Children begin to understand how symbols and

others with care, empathy and respect respect for the environment with people, place, technologies and natural and processed pattern systems work.

Children use information and communication

technologies to access information, investigate ideas

and represent their thinking

Principles:

1. Secure, respectful & reciprocal relationships 2. Partnerships 3. High expectations & equity 4. Respect for diversity 5. Ongoing learning & reflective practice

Practices:

Holistic approaches Responsiveness to children Learning through play Intentional teaching
