Message from Information for Schools
On the 31st January 2017 we are bringing together a selection of early years policy experts and senior nursery staff to examine the impact of bringing Ofsted inspections for early years back in house and the ’30 free hours’ roll-out with results from pilot schemes. Taking place in Central London, this pivotal strategy forum will feature policy updates from Ofsted and the National Day Nurseries Association alongside interactive case studies showcasing best practice for delivering ‘Outstanding’ early years provision. Places are limited to facilitate active discussion between speakers and delegates. Should you feel a colleague would be interested in attending, please feel free to forward this invitation on.
