We can design and deliver bespoke packages including practitioner CPD, family engagement, mentoring support and evaluation. It can be purchased on behalf of a group of education or community settings and is not limited by number. This could be funded as a nursery chain, a cluster of schools with early years provision, or local funding opportunities (e.g. local authority, public health, trust or foundation).
