My son went back to nursery 2 days p/wk at the start of this month. He turned 2 during lockdown, so has gone straight into the pre-school room with most of his little friends and has a new key worker. I have some issues with nursery around general communication etc so I'm not sure if this is skewing things, but yesterday I was handed a "2 year EYFS check" form. No context and not sure what to do with it, but I don't recognise my child in their assessments.
I've read the EYFS descriptors for each area and it looks as though they've just circled the age he is and copied the words from the EYFS. Eg, he talks constantly at home and forms sentences like "white van chasing mummy's car" or "where's the cat gone?" but they've indicated he can put two words together max. It's similar in almost every area.
Is there normally a big difference between what children will do at home and at nursery? I'm concerned that either they've not noticed what he is able to do, or he's much quieter at nursery and not himself. Either isn't great.
First time mum here and post-lockdown it's impossible to actually speak with anyone there.
