Episode 6: Observation and assessment in early childhood education

A thought-provoking discussion which challenges all educators who work with babies and young children to consider the basis for their approach to assessment in nursery schools, early years settings and kindergartens.

This episode of the Froebel Trust podcast asks:

how can a Froebelian educator navigate assessments, inspections and progress reporting systems in schools and early years settings today? what does a Froebel approach to assessment look like in practice? how might observing young children help educators to truly see what young children know, understand and are able to do?

You'll hear from:

Dr Stella Louis - Lead Tutor for the Froebel Trust Short Courses, author and an independent early years consultant.

Gaynor Brimble - School Improvement Partner (Early Years), South East Wales Education Achievement Service
