EYFS Safeguarding and Welfare Audit

About this resource

As part of your role you must take all necessary steps to keep children safe and well. If you are registered on the Early Years Register you should evaluate the quality of your provision and identify areas of improvement, taking into consideration the views of the parents and children. There is no specific way that you need to do this. Ofsted may ask you for examples of how you identified improvements that you can make and what you did to improve.

The columns on the left of this form show the relevant sections of the EYFS and Childcare Register and the columns on the right are for you to complete as an easy reference to areas you would like to develop. You can then use the Action Plan at the end of this document to record any changes you wish to make.

We also have available environment checklists for all 7 areas of learning within the EYFS to help you ensure you are making the most of your learning environment. These are available as a handy pack for you to use as a working document.
