Bristol & Beyond Stronger Practice Hub

Bristol & Beyond Early Years Hub (formerly The Bristol Early Years Teaching Hub) is a hub for professionals in Early Years settings and Primary Schools, who wish to collaborate, challenge and innovate to improve provision, leadership and achievement in the Early Years Foundation Stage.

Our Hub has a significant role in supporting quality improvement across Bristol and beyond. Through our strategic alliance with the LA, we play a central role in quality assurance, self-evaluation, professional development and school/setting improvement for the whole EYs sector. This includes all reception classes in Primary Schools, Nursery Schools, Nursery classes, private voluntary and independent nurseries and childminders.

Bristol & Beyond Early Years Hub has a long-standing track record of leading and delivering high-quality support and professional development that has a measurable and sustainable impact.

As our reputation has grown for delivering expert CPLD, we now offer an annual training programme and bespoke packages for EYs settings and schools both nationally and internationally.

Originally designated and established as a National Teaching School in 2012, our EYs Hub is led by St Pauls Nursery School and Children’s Centre, an ‘Outstanding’ provider, and we work in collaboration with the Bristol Local Authority EYs team, other Bristol Nursery Schools, Pen Green and the 5 Counties Teaching Hub.

  • Observing Through the Eyes of a Child – The Emotional Environment and Leadership Strategies

    Online Course
    Virtual Event

    Stronger Practice Hub Event

    What can we learn when we intentionally view our setting through the eyes of a child? This online session invites Early Years leaders to explore how child-centred observation can become a powerful tool for continuous improvement, gaining fresh insights into the quality of environments, interactions, routines and learning opportunities. Drawing on reflective practice and observation techniques, participants will examine how children's perspectives can reveal strengths, identify barriers to engagement, and highlight opportunities to enhance wellbeing, belonging and learning, with practical strategies for gathering evidence from a child's viewpoint to inform meaningful centre improvement planning. Ideal for Early Years leaders, managers, and aspiring leaders.
