Improvement audits (EYFS)

EYFS Safeguarding and Welfare Audits

EYFS audits for group settings and childminders are available online at EvaluateMySchool.

For specific queries, please contact your Early Years Officer.

The EYFS audits have been divided into sections to make the process more manageable.

• Management of Safeguarding
• Health
• Safety of Premises
• Information and Record Keeping

All audits need to be completed to ensure that the requirements of the EYFS have been met. Completion annually during terms 1 and 2 is be recommended best practice.

Early Years Officers will continue to monitor and/or complete audits with the setting or childminder where pre or post Ofsted support is being delivered by the Early Years Team.
