A coalition of Early Years organisations convened by Kindred2 , including Early Education and providers such as LEYF and Ark Start, has identified a series of practical and affordable options for improved Early Years spending in England.
The analysis, by one of the largest economic consultancies in Europe, Frontier Economics, is based on current government spending but the modelling shows how significant rebalancing could better support working families and improve outcomes for children.
The work is supported by HFL Education, Leeds Beckett University – The International Montessori Institute, nesta, Save the Children and The Sutton Trust.
This is the first time a coalition of this size and scope has joined forces to make a unique and significant intervention in the debate around childcare provision in England.
