WELCOME
The University of Edinburgh and the University of Strathclyde, in association with the Institute for Music in Human and Social Development (IMHSD) at the University of Edinburgh and the British Association for Early Childhood Education (Early Education), held a one-day conference on Saturday 11th of September 2010 to discuss the value of early childhood education and care, with a particular focus on the implications for future practice and policy in Scotland.
The organisers are now planning a second event, Early Years: Ideas to Action, to be held in June 2012. More details will be available soon.
'We encourage both parents and staff to please send us your concerns or information about the impending closure of any early years provision in Scotland, by sending an email to childscurriculum@btinternet.com.
