Developmental overviews are snapshots that help practitioners<br \/>\nunderstand a child\u2019s current stage of development and to plan appropriate next steps. The Developmental Overviews are split across 7 key areas of development as follows:<\/p>\n<p>The columns are:<br \/>\n\u2022 Movement<br \/>\n\u2022 Co-ordination<br \/>\n\u2022 Routines<br \/>\n\u2022 Social and Emotional<br \/>\n\u2022 Play and Imagination<br \/>\n\u2022 Understanding Language<br \/>\n\u2022 Using Language<\/p>\n<p>Child development is a unique process, with each child progressing at their own pace. These<br \/>\ndevelopmental milestones provide a general guide for children\u2019s progress however, it is<br \/>\nimportant to recognise that each child may reach these milestones at different times.<\/p>\n<p>Here is a link to the developmental overviews from NHS Shetland which we use in the nursery to track our pupils development.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/blogs.glowscotland.org.uk\/sh\/public\/lerwickelc\/uploads\/sites\/3613\/2026\/02\/16152759\/050-Attach-3-2-3-Year-Old-Overview.pdf\">050 &#8211; Attach 3 2-3 Year Old Overview<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/blogs.glowscotland.org.uk\/sh\/public\/lerwickelc\/uploads\/sites\/3613\/2026\/02\/16152806\/050-Attach-4-3-4-Year-Old-Overview.pdf\">050 &#8211; Attach 4 3-4 Year Old Overview<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Welcome Book &#8211; This is our nursery Welcome Book for 2026\/27 Lerwick ELC Welcome Booklet 26-27 Our Vision,Values and Aims Our Vision, Values and Aims 26-27 Meals &#8211; This link takes you to the Shetland Islands Council School Meals website &hellip; <a href=\"https:\/\/blogs.glowscotland.org.uk\/sh\/lerwickelc\/parent-information\/\">Continue reading <span class=\"meta-nav\">&rarr;<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":5696,"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-15","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.glowscotland.org.uk\/sh\/lerwickelc\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/15","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.glowscotland.org.uk\/sh\/lerwickelc\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.glowscotland.org.uk\/sh\/lerwickelc\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.glowscotland.org.uk\/sh\/lerwickelc\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/5696"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.glowscotland.org.uk\/sh\/lerwickelc\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=15"}],"version-history":[{"count":12,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.glowscotland.org.uk\/sh\/lerwickelc\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/15\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":1131,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.glowscotland.org.uk\/sh\/lerwickelc\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/15\/revisions\/1131"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.glowscotland.org.uk\/sh\/lerwickelc\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=15"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
