3+ Review

The 3+ Review is a joint Health-Education initiative, which is being implemented as part of the Early Intervention Transformation Programme (EITP).

The 3+ Review aims to holistically review the developmental progress of pre-school children.   Information from the Review can be used to support the child’s development, assist pre-school education settings with planning for the delivery of the Curricular Guidance for Pre-School Education, and identify any potential areas for focus for your pre-school class, both generally, and for any individual children who may require more targeted support.  Early identification of need also enables timely referral to support services where appropriate.

The 3+ Review takes place in the pre-school education setting and is carried out in partnership with the parents/carers, Health Visitor and pre-school practitioners.  All pre-school settings now have a named Health Visitor assigned to them.
