This session will support practitioners and leaders to develop a curriculum that is ambitious\, inclusive and responsive to the unique needs\, experiences and cultural capital of the children\, families and communities they serve. \nDrawing on Bristol’s Early Years Curriculum Guidance\, participants will explore what curriculum means in practice: everything we want children to experience\, learn and be able to do. We will consider how to identify learning priorities\, build on what children already know and can do\, and create meaningful opportunities that help children develop the knowledge\, skills and understanding they need for future learning. \nThe session will explore the three curriculum elements of Intent\, Implementation and Impact\, considering how curriculum design\, pedagogy\, assessment\, the environment and adult-child interactions work together to support children’s progress. Participants will also reflect on how a coherently planned and sequenced curriculum helps children know more\, remember more and do more over time. \nParticipants will: \n\nDevelop a clear understanding of curriculum in the Early Years.\nExplore how to identify meaningful learning priorities based on the needs of their children and community.\nConsider how curriculum intent\, implementation and impact are connected.\nReflect on the role of play\, the environment\, routines and interactions in bringing a curriculum to life.\nExplore how assessment can be used to inform curriculum decisions and support progress.\nDevelop strategies for designing an ambitious and responsive curriculum that supports all children to thrive.\n\nThis session is suitable for practitioners and leaders who want to review\, refine or develop their curriculum and strengthen the coherence\, progression and impact of children’s learning experiences across their setting. \n\n This training is for early years practitioners and leaders working in settings or childminders in our Stronger Practice Hub area (Bristol\, Bath and North East Somerset\, Swindon\, Wiltshire\, Somerset\, North Somerset\, Gloucestershire\, South Gloucestershire).

Visitors will see how strong partnerships with parents and carers enable us to identify children’s strengths and needs early\, develop shared understanding\, and implement timely support that is aligned with everyday learning. Our approach is rooted in the belief that every child should experience a genuine sense of belonging and be supported to participate successfully within their classroom community. \nPractitioners will observe how communication support\, visual strategies and curriculum-led interventions are embedded across the nursery. They will see how staff adapt provision through approaches such as visual supports\, Makaton\, core boards\, scaffolding\, backwards chaining and hand-over-hand guidance to enable children to access learning alongside their peers. Visitors will also have the opportunity to explore how sensory environments and interventions support communication\, regulation\, engagement and participation. \nLearning Aims/Intended Outcomes \nParticipants will: \n\nUnderstand how an inclusive curriculum can be adapted to support children with a wide range of needs within a mainstream nursery setting.\nExplore strategies for building strong\, collaborative relationships with parents and carers that support early identification and intervention.\nObserve how communication-supportive approaches\, including visuals\, core boards and Makaton\, can be embedded across the nursery day.\nDevelop understanding of how interventions can be aligned with curriculum outcomes to support communication\, engagement\, regulation and participation.\nExplore practical strategies that enable children to participate alongside their peers and experience a strong sense of belonging.\nReflect on how sensory environments can be used purposefully to enhance communication\, regulation and engagement.\n\nAbout Our Setting \nIlminster Avenue Nursery School is a fully inclusive mainstream nursery school serving the South Bristol community. More than 37% of our children are identified as having Special Educational Needs and Disabilities (SEND)\, and we are committed to ensuring that every child is known\, understood and supported to participate\, learn and thrive. \nStrong relationships with parents and carers are central to our approach. We work closely with families to identify strengths\, needs and interests\, enabling us to put timely support in place and remove barriers to learning as early as possible. This collaborative approach helps us develop a shared understanding of each child’s needs and ensures support is meaningful and responsive. \nAs a mainstream setting\, we have developed a range of inclusive approaches and environments that support children with diverse needs. Children have access to a sensory room\, soft play provision and a large hall used for sensory circuits\, all of which are used purposefully to support communication\, regulation and participation. \nOur SEND interventions are carefully aligned to our curriculum and include approaches such as sensory singing\, sensory stories\, bucket time\, sensory circuits and TacPac. These interventions are designed to complement high-quality universal provision rather than replace it\, supporting children to transfer skills into everyday classroom learning. \nThroughout the nursery\, practitioners use communication-supportive strategies including visuals\, core boards and Makaton\, adapting teaching and group experiences so that children can engage at their own level while remaining part of the wider nursery community.

Tuning in to babies means being curious about who they are\, what they are communicating and how we can respond in ways that help them feel safe\, understood and valued. \nAcross these two sessions\, we’ll explore the principles of attunement and what it means to be emotionally available and responsive to babies. We’ll reflect on how practitioners understand babies ’behaviour\, crying and communication\, and how co-regulation supports babies to develop a sense of security and wellbeing. \nTogether\, we’ll consider the important role of the key person\, the adult’s role in actively tuning in\, and how responsive care\, learning environments and everyday interactions support babies ’learning and development. \nWe’ll explore how attuned practice connects with babies ’learning\, and how working in partnership with families helps us build a deeper understanding of each baby’s unique experiences\, needs and relationships. \nAcross both sessions\, we’ll reflect on the barriers that can make tuning in to babies and their families more challenging\, and explore practical approaches to strengthening attuned\, relationship-based practice so that every baby feels seen\, heard and understood. \n\n This training is for early years practitioners and leaders working in settings or childminders in our Stronger Practice Hub area (Bristol\, Bath and North East Somerset\, Swindon\, Wiltshire\, Somerset\, North Somerset\, Gloucestershire\, South Gloucestershire).

Grounded in the latest evidence from the Education Endowment Foundation’s work on high-quality interactions\, this roadshow focuses on the small moments that make the biggest difference to children’s communication\, thinking\, confidence and long-term outcomes. \nThe Best Start in Life strategy recognises that high-quality interactions are one of the most powerful ways to improve outcomes for all children\, particularly those who may be experiencing disadvantage. Every conversation\, shared moment and meaningful interaction can help build children’s language\, self-regulation\, sense of belonging and readiness for learning. \nThrough videos\, reflection\, discussion and hands-on strategies\, you will explore how simple changes to everyday practice can strengthen children’s language\, deepen learning and ensure that the children who need us most receive the rich interactions they deserve. The workshop brings the Quality Interactions Toolkit to life through practical approaches such as ShREC\, scaffolding and sustained shared thinking. \nYou will leave with: \n\nReady-to-use strategies that can be applied immediately.\nGreater confidence in supporting communication\, language and thinking.\nPractical tools to strengthen interactions across the day.\nIdeas that benefit all children\, while helping to close gaps for those facing disadvantage.\nA shared language and approach that can transform practice across your whole team.\n\nBecause the practitioner is the intervention. When adults tune in\, respond sensitively and make every interaction count\, children’s learning flourishes. This is CPD that doesn’t stay in a folder—it changes what happens tomorrow. Discover how the smallest moments can create the biggest impact. \nSAVE THE DATES! \nTickets will be available once venues have been confirmed. \nTimes TBC. \n\n This training is for early years practitioners and leaders working in settings or childminders in our Stronger Practice Hub area (Bristol\, Bath and North East Somerset\, Swindon\, Wiltshire\, Somerset\, North Somerset\, Gloucestershire\, South Gloucestershire). We will also prioritise settings and childminders in areas of deprivation.

High-quality early education has a vital role to play in supporting two-year-olds and their families\, particularly those experiencing disadvantage. \nIn this session\, we’ll explore how settings can use Families Receiving Additional Support (FRAS) funded two-year-old places to support access\, build strong relationships with families\, and provide the responsive\, inclusive environments that help every child flourish. We’ll reflect on the difference high-quality equitable early years practice can make and share ideas for supporting every two-year-old to have the best start in life. \n\n This training is for early years practitioners and leaders working in settings or childminders in our Stronger Practice Hub area (Bristol\, Bath and North East Somerset\, Swindon\, Wiltshire\, Somerset\, North Somerset\, Gloucestershire\, South Gloucestershire). We will also prioritise settings and childminders in areas of deprivation. \n\nView Tickets\n\nTalking About... is a series of informal\, one-hour online networking sessions designed for early years practitioners to come together\, share experiences\, and explore key topics related to babies in early years settings. Each session focuses on a different aspect of practice\, providing a space for discussion\, reflection\, and peer support. \n\n \n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n Oct \n \n 22 \n \n\n\n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n Virtual Event \n\n \n 3:30 pm - 4:45 pm BST \n \n \n \n Talking About Twos: Meaningful Two-Year Progress Checks \n\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n Dec \n \n 4 \n \n\n\n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n Virtual Event \n\n \n 9:30 am - 10:45 am GMT \n \n \n \n Talking About Babies: Talking to Parents and Carers \n\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n Feb \n \n 2 \n \n\n\n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n Virtual Event \n\n \n 3:30 pm - 4:45 pm GMT \n \n \n \n Talking About Twos: Removing Barriers\, Creating Opportunities \n\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n Apr \n \n 9 \n \n\n\n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n Virtual Event \n\n \n 9:30 am - 10:45 am BST \n \n \n \n Talking About Babies: Listening to Babies \n\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n Jun \n \n 9 \n \n\n\n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n Virtual Event \n\n \n 3:30 pm - 4:45 pm BST \n \n \n \n Talking About Twos: Behaviour: Regulate\, Relate and Reason \n\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n Aug \n \n 13 \n \n\n\n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n Virtual Event \n\n \n 9:30 am - 10:45 am BST \n \n \n \n Talking About Babies: Mental Health and Wellbeing with Sarah Clarke \n\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\n \n\n \n \n View Calendar URL:https://beyth.co.uk/course/talking-about-twos-removing-barriers-creating-opportunities/ LOCATION:Online Course CATEGORIES:Spotlight on Twos Network,Stronger Practice Hub ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://beyth.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2016/09/DSCF8017.jpg END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
