Early Learning Goals
Early learning goals are the educational targets set for children between the ages of 0-5 in the Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS). 

For each area of development ( 7 ) there are early learning goals. This means when he practitioner observes and plans activities they should intent to track the process of these Early Learning Goals.
