(This note is not part of the Order)
The Education (National Curriculum) (Foundation Stage) (Wales) Order 2008 (“the 2008 Order”) specifies the dates on which the foundation stage will be phased in. The 2008 Order also specifies the period of the foundation stage and gives legal effect to the areas of learning, which set out the desirable outcomes and educational programmes. This Order amends the 2008 Order so as to correct a mistake in the Welsh language text.
