Best Practice Guidance for the Early Years
Best Practice Guidance for the Early Years (BPG) is a Threads of Success product, developed by professionals within Kent to offer advice and guidance to Early Years practitioners in supporting all children, including those with Special Educational Needs and/or Disabilities (SEND), to achieve their potential.
Best Practice Guidance for the Early Years document and associated Audit Tools (see below) are embedded in Kent's SEND processes. All referrals for advice and Specialist Teacher involvement come through the EY LIFT process with the expectation that BPG audit tools will accompany the referral.
This Guidance document is available in both hard copy or online download. The online version is Kent funded (free) for Kent PVI settings.
