Providing an enabling environment remains key to supporting better outcomes for children. An enabling environment supports children to feel confident to explore and allows practitioners to scaffold their learning. This course looks at how we can ensure our environments are highly stimulating with child-accessible resources. This will promote learning and how to challenge children both in and outdoors.

The Ofsted Early Years Inspection Handbook states: 147 “Practitioners and leaders create an environment that supports the intent of an ambitious and coherently planned and sequenced curriculum. The available resources meet the children’s needs and promote their focus on learning.”

A course full of fun, designed to enthuse practitioners to deliver inspirational environments to children particularly with the current COVID-19 restrictions in place.

This course has been prepared to help you support the children in your care with consideration of the current Covid-19 pandemic and its restrictions.
