Stronger Practice Hubs

Early Years Stronger Practice Hubs are a national network of hubs, connecting providers and acting as a source of high-quality evidence-based information. 

It is free for settings to access support through Early Years Stronger Practice Hubs. These Hubs will focus on supporting children from socio-economically disadvantaged backgrounds and support will focus on settings without existing access to networks and/or relationships with other early years providers, looking to improve the quality of their provision and would benefit from high-quality professional development for staff.

In supporting other settings to adopt practice improvements, Hubs will provide advice, share good practice and offer evidence-based professional development for practitioners, including:

  • Establishing local networks of settings to share knowledge and effective practice.
  • Proactively sharing information and advice on evidence-based approaches
  • Acting as a point of contact for bespoke advice, and signposting to other funded support

Our local hub is Derbyshire and Nottinghamshire Early Years Stronger Practice Hub. 

This hub covers: Derby, Derbyshire, Nottingham, Nottinghamshire
