Health and Development Check

All Haringey children aged 2 who attend an early years setting will have a development check. This check makes sure that we pick up any development needs as soon as possible so that we can offer you additional support if you need it.

Your health visitor will also carry out a health check when your child is two years old.

What to expect in the Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS)

A guide for parents

The Early Years Foundation Stage Profile at age five provides parents, practitioners, and teachers with a full picture of a child’s knowledge, understanding and abilities. A profile is usually completed for children in the final term of the year in which they turn five. It is particularly helpful for children with SEND and should inform plans for future learning.

This guide provides you with lots of information about what children do at different ages as well as tips for how you can help them. If you are still concerned, you should contact your child’s health visitor or talk to their nursery.
