About the hub

Greater Lincolnshire Early Years Stronger Practice Hub supports early years practitioners and leaders across Lincolnshire, North Lincolnshire and North East Lincolnshire. We bring settings together to share effective practice, explore evidence and find practical ways to improve experiences for babies and young children.

Our Hub is led by Gainsborough Nursery School and works with partners across the early years sector. We want our support to reflect the different communities and types of provision in Greater Lincolnshire, including childminders, private and voluntary settings, maintained nursery schools and school based provision.

What you can expect

You can connect with other early years professionals through networks, events and training, access practical resources, and learn from settings and practitioners who are putting evidence into practice. Our developing offer includes opportunities for childminders and room leaders to meet with peers, alongside online learning that settings can access across our wide geographical area.

We are listening to providers as we shape this offer. Whether you work directly with children or lead a setting, we want to understand the challenges you face and the support that would make the greatest difference. You can help by completing our provider survey and joining the Hub for updates and opportunities to get involved.
