In 2005, the new updated edition of the ECERS-R was published by Teachers College Press. Featuring a new spiral binding, the updated ECERS-R offers more practical assistance in the form of additional notes for clarification and an Expanded Score Sheet, which incorporates notes and tables to assist in scoring. However, the items and indicators remain the same as in the original ECERS-R.

These notes were developed by Thelma Harms and Debby Cryer to improve the interrater agreement among all scale users. These notes do not change any of the requirements in the printed scales, they merely add additional information to help in accurate scoring.
