The early years landscape is changing fast, with the past few years seeing the introduction of free nursery education for three-and four-year-olds, the Foundation Stage, Sure Start, and the Early Years Directorate, plus the continuing growth of big nursery groups and the escalation in demand for under-threes provision. In response to all this, Nursery World has been changing too, as we launch new supplements and publish new feature series to provide the information and advice that practitioners need, as well as reporting the main news stories every week. Are we meeting your needs? How could we do it better? You've got your chance to tell us this week, as you'll find our readership survey enclosed with the magazine. Please take a few minutes to fill this in - it gives us a better picture of you the reader and your working life, and helps us decide what balance of coverage will suit you best. Your name will be entered into a great prize draw too!
