英国 EYFS 教育体系是世界上最权威的婴幼儿教育标准之一，由英国教育部历时 12 年编纂完成，超过 7000 名专家、学者和教师参与制定。是英格兰政府以“给父母最好的选择、给幼儿最好的开始”为宗旨，提出的一个教育方案，2008 年 9 月被正式纳入英格兰的法制中，是评估英国所有幼儿园的国家级课程标准。

As one of the most authoritative standards of early years education in the world, EYFS (The Early Years Foundation Stage) whose purpose is to give parents the best choice and give children the best start, was compiled by Depart-ment for Education within 12 years, with more than 7000 experts, scholars and teachers participating. It's brought into legislation in September 2008 in England. All schools and Ofsted-registered early years providers must follow the EYFS, including childminders, preschools, nurseries and school reception classes.
