Celebrate the Impact of Early Years Education in Shaping Global Futures!

Join us for an engaging virtual event focused on the important role that early years educators play in inspiring and developing the next generation in an ever-changing world. To recognise International Day of the Girl, we will explore how early years education can shape futures globally, with insights from our charity partner, War Child, and our panel of experts.

The discussion will highlight the essential role of early years educators, and how nurturing and valuing them can lead to better outcomes for children, and the critical connection between education and global impact. Whether you’re already an early years professional or are exploring your career options, this event promises a chance to connect, learn, and be part of a movement that aspires to put value back into the early years sector.
