Our Role as a Stronger Practice Hub
As a Stronger Practice Hub we aim to support other early years settings to improve outcomes for children in their local area across the EYFS, but specifically focusing on areas of development that research informs us have been most impacted by COVID-19: personal social and emotional development (PSED); communication and language, and early literacy and maths.
We aim to support settings to adopt well-evidenced practice improvements in a number of ways.
