The Institute for Early Years aims to improve practitioners’ understanding of child development and family support, along with connecting experts through a global learning platform.
It has been set up by independent consultant Sue Egersdorff, with the support of the London Early Years Foundation (LEYF), the University of Northampton and Angel Solutions, a company that provides software to schools and children’s centres.
A goal of the institute is to further support and develop growing evidence that investment in maternal and child health, good nutrition, sensitive parenting, high quality learning and development opportunities benefits society. It will do this by producing and supporting original research, publishing ‘innovative thinking’ and hosting events.
