What's included in this bundle?
This pack contains two key resources to support your understanding of effective provision for mathematics in the early years foundation stage. Full 8-page guidance is included and will walk you through:
- What mathematics in the EYFS is

- How EYFS mathematics links to the Year 1 National Curriculum
This makes the pack ideal for those who are new to EYFS leadership, or for non-EYFS specialists (such as curriculum leaders) who wish to use the pack to gain a deeper understanding of teaching and learning in the early years foundation stage.
The pack also includes a 12-page editable EYFS Mathematics Audit which provides reflective questions that allow you to consider your current position and your next steps in the following broad areas:
