Helen Posted February 3, 2023 Share Posted February 3, 2023 I've just had the luxury of half an hour on a Friday afternoon catching up with the website and watching this really beautiful short video, celebrating the first 5 years of a child's life. Until today, I hadn't really had time to learn the details around the focus of the Centre's work in years to come. I feel pretty upbeat about it! Apart from the stats that say only a quarter of the population understand the unique importance of the first five years, obviously....😧 I particularly liked the phrase 'positive protective factors' that a high quality early years experience can bring to children, particularly those in difficult and deprived circumstances. Have you had a chance to watch these? What do you think? Is change and recognition of the importance of the early years about to happen? And what can we all do to help make that change? https://royalfoundation.com/early-childhood/ https://shapingus.centreforearlychildhood.org/ 'Not for the quick win, but for the big win'.
