The Early Years Library, a free resource launched in summer 2022, aims to address potential barriers to delivering evidence-based early childhood education.
It includes 14 booklets which concentrate on language and early literacy, early numeracy, and social and emotional skills.
After examining 22 evidence-based early childhood education programmes, the Early Intervention Foundation and the PEDAL centre at the University of Cambridge brought together an expert panel of 15 practitioners to support the development of the resource.
The panel consisted of nursery workers, managers and childminders from maintained and private settings across England and Wales, who met bi-monthly to discuss how the Early Years Library resources could be used to inform different activities such as training and continuing professional development (CPD).
