I hope I know something about education. I have a B.A. Hons in German Studies, a Master of Science in Human Ecology and a Postgraduate Certificate in Adult Education.
I’m also the mother of one child aged five. The (EYFS) is a compulsory curriculum for children from birth to five. The compulsory nature of the EYFS means it’s the first time the government has imposed such an extensive compulsory legal framework on early years settings. We are the first parents in the U.K. to have requested a parental exemption fromthe EYFS statutory Learning and Development Requirements on “moral, educational, religious, philosophical,ethical and political” grounds in a state-funded school. Homeschooling is not an option for us. This blog charts our progress and provides information about how and why the Early Years Foundation framework exists and the wider context: the government’s increasingly devastating bureaucratic stranglehold on our children’s futures. Join in the debate. Look for the ‘leave your comments’ link in bold which you will find at the beginning of each post.
