Since it was founded in 2011, the Bristol Early Years Teaching Consortium (BEYTC) has gone from strength to strength and is now renowned as a research base with 21 Specialist Leaders in Education (SLEs) working in partnership with Bristol City Council to provide support in a range of specialist areas to schools and early years settings across the city.
The consortium now includes Redcliffe and St Paul’s Nursery Schools and Children’s Centres, both integrated settings that are rated Outstanding and were two of the first nurseries in the country to be awarded National Teaching School (NTS) status.
Collectively, the two schools offer more than 45 continuing professional development (CPD) courses, including a range of bespoke research and study days, short courses, higher education programmes at master’s level, and initial teacher training in collaboration with both the University of Gloucestershire and Bath Spa University.
