A flexible way for settings to engage with various online recordings

Liverpool City Region and Beyond Early Years Stronger Practice Hub, have introduced a flexible way for settings to engage with various online recordings. Feedback from Local Authorities highlighted Communication and Language development as a continued key priority, so this has been the focus of the CPD resource. 

The resource provides flexibility to suit all educators, whether refreshing their knowledge or exploring communication and language in more depth for the first time. Childminders plan to use the recordings during network meetings to encourage good practice and discussion. Similarly, other settings can incorporate the recordings into INSET days or staff meetings.

To support this, there is a written INSET template for those who prefer this delivery format. This resource will be a valuable tool to support evidence-informed practice, encourage professional dialogue, and promote the effective sharing of knowledge across early years settings.

 

If you would like the recording that accompanies this inset resource please email sphubnw@evertoncentre.liverpool.sch.uk   providing us with your name, setting name, postcode and Local Authority your setting is registered with.

Early Education Journal 

Early Education published a Journal  issue on Cultures of Sustainability in  Summer 2024. The journal started a conversation exploring sustainability, referenced by Jan White in the editorial. This issue is a follow on from that one, building on the articles 
and educators’ experiences of sustainability in practice.
