From January 2026, there will be a change to how your child’s 2–2½ year Health and Development Review is carried out.

The 0–19 Service will now complete all children’s 2-year reviews. Previously, some reviews were done by Early Years settings alongside the EYFS Progress Check.

You’ll receive an appointment shortly after your child’s second birthday.

Your child’s Early Years setting will still complete the EYFS Progress Check as usual.

These two reviews will now be separate, giving you:

✅A clearer picture of your child’s development
✅A valuable chance to discuss any questions or concerns

The 0–19 Service and Early Years settings will continue working closely together to support you and your family.

Look out for your appointment letter and pop the date in your diary!

We have loved supporting this charity this year. Thanks to all the staff and families who have donated.
