Child development - essential knowledge

The aim of this session is to build on previously acquired child development knowledge and to develop a
secure understanding of the need for a progressive and sequential curriculum to support this.

By the end of the session, delegates will have had the opportunity to:

• Enhance and develop knowledge of child development patterns, sequences, and milestones. (Sheridan 2014)
• Identify the links between brain development research and the importance of quality interaction between adults and children in an early education setting or home-based setting.
• Consider how the learning environment (the third teacher) impacts on the emotional wellbeing of babies and children
• Discuss a range of activities, experiences and resources that will support children’s development effectively
