Reflective Questions for EYFS Supervision
Supervision should be more than a tick-box exercise. It should provide a safe, supportive space for practitioners to reflect on their practice, celebrate successes, discuss challenges and identify the support they need to thrive.
This practical resource has been designed to help Early Years leaders facilitate meaningful supervision conversations that place equal importance on children's outcomes, staff wellbeing and professional growth.
Inside, you'll find a carefully curated collection of reflective questions covering a range of key areas, including wellbeing and workload, safeguarding, curriculum confidence, adult interactions, professional development and teamwork. The questions can be used flexibly to suit the needs of individual practitioners and settings, helping to ensure supervision feels purposeful rather than performative.
Whether you're new to leading supervision meetings or looking to move beyond generic prompts, this guide will support you in creating conversations that build confidence, strengthen practice and leave staff feeling genuinely valued and supported.
This resource includes reflective questions relating to:
• Wellbeing and workload
• Reflecting on practice
• Children and key children
• Adult interactions
• Curriculum confidence
• Safeguarding
• Teamwork and professional relationships
• Professional development
• Looking ahead and agreed next steps
Perfect for Reception teachers, Nursery leaders, EYFS leads and senior leaders looking to make supervision meaningful, supportive and rooted in the realities of Early Years practice.
