Overview

London South Early Years Stronger Practice Hub is based at Charles Dickens Primary and Nursery School in Borough. We work with early years settings and childminders to address the impact of the pandemic on young children. We do this by:

  • Working collaboratively with local nurseries and childminders to identify priorities in our region.
  • Sharing effective practice through webinars, face to face events, newsletters and blogs.
  • Supporting existing local networks, and establishing new ones.
  • Delivering evidence-informed professional development programmes in collaboration with the EEF.

As an existing Research School, we have a track record of supporting leaders and practitioners to understand and apply evidence in their contexts, to deliver better outcomes for our youngest children.
