Event code EYC 22/118 
Event description In spring / summer 2022, a small group of early years leaders piloted the formation of an online EYFS Collaborative Hub: ‘Outdoor Play in all Weathers’. 

This academic year, EYFS Collaborative Hubs have been expanded to include many other aspects of early years practice.

Aims
The aims of the EYFS Collaborative Hubs are for our early years leaders to co-develop, share, align and sustain:

1.  Highly inspirational early years education and leadership within and between our early years settings (Childminders, Children Centres and PVIs) and schools:


  • Locality-based

  • Cross-locality

  • Nationally & globally


2.  High educational outcomes and closed gaps for all children, and thus ensure that the start of every child’s learning journey, from the EYFS, is successful for all learners – irrespective of ethnicity; those with SEND, different starting points; and the lowest 20% or 10%

3.  Sector-led and self-sustaining collaborative partnerships, that centre on:


  • The original focus of this hub

  • Emerging needs-led and / or enquiry-led foci


4.  Content development regarding highly inspirational practice that is research-driven and worthy of dissemination locally, nationally and globally

NB: It is envisaged that eventually hubs will engage in joint practice-based visits to each other’s settings

The EYFS Collaborative Hubs can be attended as a stand-alone CPD initiative or as one of the requirements of the ‘Inspirational Settings Programme’
