OP&L (Observation of Play and Learning)

Bringing back the joy of observing children in the Early Years

OPAL is an early years assessment system developed by Barnet Early Years Alliance (BEYA), a Federation of three nursery schools in north London. It aims to reduce paperwork, supporting practitioners to observe children without fixed agendas and build in time for quality reflection about children’s learning.

More information about the OP&L assessment system can be found here.
