Developmental Overview from NHS Shetland
Developmental overviews are a valuable tool for observing and supporting children’s
developmental milestones. Developmental overviews are snapshots that help practitioners
understand a child’s current stage of development and to plan appropriate next steps. The Developmental Overviews are split across 7 key areas of development as follows:
The columns are:
• Movement
• Co-ordination
• Routines
• Social and Emotional
• Play and Imagination
• Understanding Language
• Using Language
Child development is a unique process, with each child progressing at their own pace. These
developmental milestones provide a general guide for children’s progress however, it is
important to recognise that each child may reach these milestones at different times.
Here is a link to the developmental overviews from NHS Shetland which we use in the nursery to track our pupils development.
