Stay calm and self-regulate: Learning about executive function in young children

Self-regulation and executive function are not new concepts but they have appeared for the first time within the EYFS reforms and the revised Development Matters document. Whether you are in favour of the EYFS reforms or not, self-regulation and executive function skills play an important role in child development. Sue is one of Kinderly’s early years experts and author of ‘Self-regulation skills in young children’.

In this webinar, Sue will define what is meant by self-regulation and executive function and discuss examples of how you can to support young children on their self-regulation journey.
