Victorian Early Years Learning and Development Framework

The Victorian Early Years Learning and Development Framework (VEYLDF) is a state-wide, curriculum for early childhood education implemented in Victoria, Australia, for working with children from birth to eight years of age to support literacy, numeracy, health and wellbeing.[1]

The VEYLDF was released in 2009 by the Department of Education and Training (Victoria) having been adapted from the Early Years Learning Framework (EYLF) for Australia, and implemented during 2010.[2] A key difference between the two frameworks include how EYLF focuses on children from birth to five years of age, while VEYLDF extends to eight years.[3][4] Both frameworks share the same five learning and development outcomes, with the VEYLDF linking to the first three year levels of the Victorian curriculum F-10 (Foundation - year 10).[5] While the EYLF moved to Version 2 in January 2023 the VEYLDF has no changes and remains in its original form.[6]
