Foundation Stage Profile

The foundation stage profile (FSP) is the statutory means of recording each child’s attainment against the early learning goals. 

It identifies each child's learning needs at the end of the foundation stage.

For most children, this is at the end of the reception year in primary, infant or first schools. 

The FSP must be completed in any government-funded setting, including private, voluntary or independent, in which children complete the foundation stage.
