This document is
based on the stepping stones to early learning goals tables published
on North East Lincolnshire’s Lighthouse for Education website
and designed to aid planning and assessment.
This document shows
how the scale points on the Foundation Stage Profile relate to the early
learning goals and stepping stones.
The scale points
that are derived from the early learning goals are printed in red and
the wording of the scale points is used. Where the wording has changed
significantly, this new wording is printed in italics.
Many of the scale
points drawn from the stepping stones are substantially different from
any particular stepping stones and therefore have been printed in italics
and allocated to what seems to be the most appropriate stage and strand.
The order of the
strands for PSE has changed (see page numbers) in order to show the
structure of the PSE scales.
The order of the
Early Learning Goals has been changed, if necessary, to show the order
of the scale points.
The names of the
scales and the ninth scale points have been added to the bottom of the
tables.
The coding for
the scale points is that used in the Foundation Stage Profile handbook.

How this document
could be used
This document has
been designed as a tool to aid assessment and planning.
It can be used
to record individual pupil’s progress by highlighting stepping
stones and scale points as they are achieved. The colour of the highlighter
pen used should correspond to the dots in the scale booklet.

Practitioners will have to
consider where and how evidence can be stored of individual pupil progress.
The document can also be
used as a handy reference for planning and assessing, though it is strongly
recommended that practitioners frequently refer to the Curriculum Guidance.
It can also be used to monitor
the stepping stones and scale points that have been:
- addressed in the planning
of learning opportunities;
- focuses for observation
and assessment.
Again, a highlighter
can be used to record what has been covered.
