Hi, you need to link it to, or write about the framework of the home nation that you live in.
England? NI? Scotland? Wales?

There are common features between them all rather than the direct influences that educational approaches such as Reggio Emilia had/have, notably

- Parent partnership
- Learning through active participation and play
- A need for balancing adult and child led/initiated activities
- That the framework supports practitioners to deliver education holistically although areas of learning are individually named, divided or categorised.
- A recognised importance of assessing children's individual needs

One significant difference between all four here is that England's Early Years Foundation Stage is the only framework to include children aged less than 3 within its statutory positon. All other nations provide guidance, good practice and recommendations - Scotland's Prebirth to three.

Hope this helps a little more.
