An important milestone in early childhood education and care is reached in 2021 as Belonging, Being and Becoming: The Early Years Learning Framework for Australia is reviewed. The Early Years Learning Framework (EYLF) was groundbreaking. It has been influential in providing national guidelines around pedagogical principles, practice and learning outcomes for children. This commentary is intended to contribute to the wider conversation that is taking place this year. It proposes that a refined EYLF retains the focus on child-centredness and playful learning, and advocates for the structure of the revised document to include continua of learning and development. The provision of learning trajectories would assist early childhood educators to enact the planning cycle, meet National Quality Standard Quality Area 1, and thus potentially increase the learning outcomes for all children.

到2021年，儿童早期教育和照料的一个重要里程碑达到了“归属，存在和成为：澳大利亚的早期学习框架”。被审查。早期学习框架（EYLF）具有开创性。它在提供有关儿童的教学原则，实践和学习成果的国家指导方针方面具有影响力。该评论旨在促进今年正在进行的更广泛的对话。它建议，经过改进的EYLF应当继续关注以儿童为中心和好玩的学习，并主张修订后的文件的结构应包括学习和发展的连续性。提供学习轨迹将有助于幼儿教育者制定计划周期，达到国家质量标准质量领域1，从而有可能增加所有儿童的学习成果。
