This is an Info session with the Programme Providers\, NDNA\, and the SPH. It is an ideal opportunity to come along to find out more about this impactful programme and how your setting and children can benefit and what it entails. We also have one or two settings lined up to talk about their experience with Maths Champions in their setting. \nSo come along to hear more and ask your questions before you commit to the programme. \nMaths Champions is an online professional development programme developed by the National Day Nurseries Association (NDNA)\, with support from the Education Endowment Foundation (EEF). The programme aims to improve the maths attainment of children in an early years setting by training a Maths Champion and Deputy Maths Champion in key mathematical concepts and increasing staff knowledge\, awareness and confidence in supporting early mathematics. It has been proven to boost children’s Maths and Language attainment by an average of 3 additional months. (And 6 months for EYPP children) \n100% of settings said that the programme had a beneficial impact on the staff in their setting. It is a low cost\, high impact programme\, and currently funded by the DFE/ EEF. \nRead more about Maths Champions on our Evidence-Informed Programme page and complete an Expression of Interest Form. \nNote: This session will be recorded. \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).
