Children as young as 4 are expected to write in sentences and use punctuation under the Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS) framework – widely described as a “toddlers’ curriculum”.
This sets 69 goals and more than 500 development milestones that children in England should reach by the age of 5.
They are supposed to use mathematics to solve practical problems, retell stories in the correct sequence, understand right from wrong, read simple sentences on their own, sit quietly, be able to use a computer and understand that other people have different views, cultures and beliefs that need to be respected.
I am sorry but this isn’t education it is goverment approved child abuse!

totally agree!
I just cant see how the people we apparently elected can be so far from reality as far as the education of our children are concerned, however if you consider the chaos at local council level one starts to understand!
