Supporting and upskilling practitioners to focus on developing core practice and provision for 2-3 yr old children in schools

Description

Whether you are embarking on opening provision for this age group, or looking to evaluate and improve your current offer, this course offers support, practical advice and inspirational ideas on how to develop your provision for 2-3yr old children.

We will explore strategies to successfully develop positive relationships to improve the quality of adult: child interactions.
