🌱👶 Build Staff Confidence Engaging with Parents and Carers — Pathway to Better Outcomes for Children. Parents' involvement is crucial in shaping a child's learning journey, both at home and within educational settings. It significantly impacts children's outcomes, yet for ECEC staff, fostering meaningful engagement with parents requires more than just good intentions. It demands practical skills, strategies, and a deep understanding of family dynamics. The Parental Engagement and Relationships (PEAR) Training is designed for Early Childhood Educators and Services.

These are voices that are not heard often in international education: student mothers abroad. Has there been any research done on this? How many study abroad? How are they supported? #globalthoughts #intled #intleducation #internationaleducation #educationabroad #studyabroad #parentsabroad #mothersabroad #studentmothers #highered #highereducation

When it comes to your child with diverse needs, decisive action in their education is crucial, even when fear creeps in. Decisions like pursuing special education, challenging determinations, considering private placements, or acknowledging extra support needs are tough but necessary. Decisiveness is key in shaping a child's educational future. Parents often struggle due to overthinking, lack of trust in judgment, and external pressures. Many freeze up, delaying crucial interventions until it's too late. In my work helping parents navigate education for their children, I witness firsthand the challenges they face in making decisive choices. Remember, leaning on those with clarity can guide this process. #Parenting #Education #DecisionMaking #ChildDevelopment #IEP #504

"The first five years have so much to do with how the next 80 turns out"- Bill Gates. At the heart of ECCE is the belief that every child deserves the opportunity to develop to their fullest potential. Quality early childhood education fosters cognitive, emotional, and social growth, preparing children for the challenges of formal education and life beyond the classroom. As educators, caregivers, policymakers, and community members, we all play a vital role in supporting early childhood development. Early Childhood Care and Education (ECCE) plays a transformative role in shaping the future of our children, laying a strong foundation for lifelong learning, health, and well-being.

The value of pre-K is FINALLY getting the recognition it deserves as a cornerstone for both academic and social success. Yet, with the rise of FREE early childhood education centers, private schools face the challenge of standing out as families flock to these options. So, how can you, as an ECE leader, ensure your center not only survives but thrives in this evolving landscape? You need to deliver this clear message: "We are here for your ENTIRE FAMILY!" While attractive features like smaller class sizes are a plus, your primary focus should be to show parents that you emphasize what truly matters to THEM. But, how can you discover what they value? 👉 Parent Surveys! By understanding and addressing parent priorities through surveys, you can better align your offerings with their needs and effectively communicate your center's value. This will allow you to communicate that your goal is to EMBRACE the future — not just for the student, but for the entire family. The bottom line? In a sea of options, use data from parent surveys to create a school that stands out as the ONLY choice by meeting the needs of the entire family.

At Roots Federation we want early years education to be well rounded - developing academic, social, emotional, creative and physical skills. Every child should feel safe and happy in their nursery, and develop a love of learning that lasts beyond their school years. By working together, schools can share their expertise and resources, increase opportunities and capacity for practitioners, and best serve their communities. Why do we care so much about early years? Well, we want everyone to lead happy, healthy and productive lives. Evidence shows that the first five years of life have a bigger impact on future outcomes than any other time. Good development in early years is linked to better educational outcomes, careers, health and housing. While home life during early years is critical, early years setting make a difference too, which is why every under five in our care receives exceptional care and education. We are all about putting children back at the hearts of budgets.

Insightful and valuable discussions on the future of education with @Bridget Phillipson Department for Education Celebrating the work of all EY educators and recognition for the challenges facing the sector. 👏 My questions were: “England is currently in a childhood inactivity and obesity crisis. How will this government prioritise physical activity and health in schools? Two x 45 min sessions of PE a week is not sufficient to lift children out of this crisis. How will you raise the profile of physical development in early years settings.. and give it the same status as the other Prime Areas?” #ey #eyfsteachers #earlyyears #physicaldevelopment #physed #primarype #activelearning #movementmatters ukactive Professional Association for Childcare and Early Years (PACEY) National Day Nurseries Association (NDNA) NEYASP Association for Physical Education Youth Sport Trust Dr. Lala Manners Early Years Alliance Early Education CREC - Centre for Research in Early Childhood
