About this resource
EYFS Screen Use Policy Editable Template
An editable Screen Use Policy designed for Early Years settings in England, reflecting the updated EYFS requirements from September 2026 and current DfE guidance around the appropriate use of screens with young children.
The policy supports settings to clearly set out how and when screens are used, ensuring technology has a clear purpose and enhances learning rather than replacing play, interaction and real-life experiences.
It covers screen time recommendations for different ages, purposeful use of technology, adult interaction and co-viewing, safeguarding and online safety, SEND and assistive technology, use of screens during routines and transitions, behaviour management, AI and digital content, and working with parents and carers.
The document is fully editable, with clearly highlighted sections for settings to personalise according to their own provision, procedures and use of technology.
A useful starting point for nurseries, preschools, childminders and school-based EYFS teams reviewing their practice in light of the September 2026 EYFS changes.
Please note: This is an editable template and should be adapted to reflect the individual setting and its procedures.
